happening hits parts timely
What's happening is we're getting timely hits and we're doing it from all parts of the lineup.
next spoke time tomorrow whatever
I spoke with (Everett) and things are going well. I told him to take whatever time he needs. And that could be tomorrow or the next day or the next.
bat confidence help lamb lift longer morgan plus power quite saying seen starting step stretch swing time
I've been saying for quite some time now that Lamb is going to have to be a big plus for us down this stretch drive, and he is starting to swing the bat like we've seen in the past. It was a big lift tonight. We don't know how much longer Morgan is going to be out, but if he (Lamb) can step up and swing with power like we know he can, I think that will help everybody's confidence a little bit.
bridges gives goes great kept points several standpoint time
There's several great points from our standpoint in that game. It was Backe's first time back, and he kept us in the ballgame. And Wandy Rodriguez, who has been a starter, he goes out and gives us one inning and kind of bridges our bullpen.
amount game good hoping needs pitch time
This will be good for Brandon. He had a good amount of time off. I'm hoping he's healthy, and I think he will be. He needs to go out to pitch like it's the first game of the World Series.
behind obviously time
It's time to start. Obviously we were a little behind with our bats, but it's OK.
hard message time
I've had a hard time getting the message across,
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.
next time whatever
I told him to take whatever time he needed, to come back when he's ready, ... That may be tomorrow, that may be the next day or the next day after that.
couple days fool fortunate ground inventory last lose nice personal pick streak time
We're going to have to take a personal inventory as a team. This is September, and this is no time to fool around. We need to pick it up a little bit. It is fortunate to lose two ballgames the last couple of days after having a nice streak and not lose any ground to the leaders.
bounce bunch game helps quickly stretch time whenever
We're in a stretch of a bunch of day games. We don't bounce back as quickly as we used to. At this time of the year, whenever he can have a game off, it helps him a little bit.
good grinding guys huge job last marvelous offense pitching pressure saying six super time today
Wandy did a super job today and that was huge for us. Our pitching has done a marvelous job the last six games. You have to feel good any time they pitch, but I'd like to see our offense come around a little. The guys are grinding and by me saying this, it'll probably put more pressure on them.
ball games hot last time unless week win
You don't want everyone hot all at the same time unless it's the last week of the season. You need to be able to win ball games without everyone being hot.
both ready time
I think they're really good. Probably right on track. So we've got time to get them both ready and we can do that.
