coming games good job ours runs somehow time trait typical
It's just something that's been a trait of ours all year, but we managed to win. It's like some of our typical games and somehow we managed to get through it. We didn't eke one out this time and that's unfortunate because we had been doing a pretty good job of coming up with runs somehow.
everybody gorilla innings nobody room scoring sitting starts talk trying wants
It's like that 600-pound gorilla sitting in the room that nobody wants to talk about. If you keep going too many innings without scoring runs, everybody starts trying to do too much in one bat. And that's when you get in trouble.

It's going to be hard not to vote for Carpenter. If Roger keeps going like he's going and Carpenter keeps going like he's going, it's going to be a tough call.

The young kids haven't learned how to do it. They pitched around several of our veterans (last year) to get to the young kids. According to my statistical analysis, we were ranked at the bottom of the league in most all offensive categories.

ball ballpark club easy face guys high hit
They have guys that can get on base, they have guys that can hit the ball out of the ballpark and hit for a high average. So they are not an easy club to have to face and they are not an easy club to defend.
badly beaten celebrate change matter
They have beaten us up pretty badly this year. They have really thumped us pretty good. Just as a matter of pride, we would not want to see them celebrate here again. We'd like to change that.
