Every time I hear the national anthem here, I look over at the center-field scoreboard and I can't wait until those planes fly over it in the World Series, ...

brand carry football happened job last lost matter mean night players remind wait week whether won
Whether you won or lost the night before, it's a brand new game. It' s my job and my coaches' job to remind the players that no matter what happened last night, it doesn't mean anything today. This is not like football where you have to wait one week to recover. You just have to get up every day and fight. If you carry it over, you're a loser.
