rode tonight
Garland, we just hopped on his back tonight and just rode him.
breathe busted couple finally game good knocked last
We busted out. We knocked them out. It's finally good to have a game like that where you could breathe the last couple of innings.
aspect beaten
We were just beaten in every aspect of the game. We were just pounded.
five gets happy lack last matter
We're happy we don't have to see him a lot. In the last five years, when he's been healthy, he's been doing the job. It's not a lack of skills. It's just a matter of that injury. If he gets healthy, he's going to do some damage.
exactly nasty threw
He's got nasty stuff, that guy. He threw it exactly where I was looking.
five guys split
Really, you can split that thing five ways. Those guys were unbelievable.
bad best boils both eventually fresh number player plays start white
I don't think it's a bad thing that he's getting a fresh start with a different team. It boils down to the White Sox have to do the best for their team. Every player that plays this game, eventually you're going to have your number called and have to leave. It's the business. I see it from both sides.
nice taking turned
We've kind of turned it around a little bit. We know it's in the driver's seat, and it's there for the taking as long as we just do our job. We don't have to really look at the scoreboard, but it's always nice if you get some help. But we know we can do it on our own, as well.
damage five happy lack last matter skills wish
When he's healthy, even this last year, he was doing damage on one leg. We wish him well and we're happy he's not in our division, so we don't have to see him a lot. Because in the last five years, when he's healthy, he has been doing the job. It has nothing to do with lack of skills or anything. It was just a matter of that injury. So if he's healthy, he is going to do some damage.
good guy keeps mean takes type
He's a fiery, mean type of guy, ... but in a good way. He's an in-your-face type of guy that keeps you on your toes. He's so competitive, and takes it to a different level.
both hopefully rule son weekend wife
I don't see it being a problem, ... Hopefully we play well over the weekend and take that to Houston. Because I wouldn't rule out both my wife and son going to Houston.
games play guy
Whether he gets hit early or in the middle or late, he gets in his seven innings it seems like every time. There are also great defensive plays made behind him and it's not a coincidence. Guys are in the game. He works quick.
baseball player suits
Anytime you put a baseball player in a suit and take him out of his element its uncomfortable.
writing cutting hair
If the guy that writes you checks says cut your hair, off to the barber shop you go. That's that.
