behind everybody game guy pick playing pressure takes
When you have a lineup where everybody can produce, it takes a lot of pressure off the hitters. I know, if I make an out, the guy behind me is going to come and pick me up. When you have that, it makes the game fun. And when it happens, you're playing the game relaxed.
help successful
I've got to do that with all of them -- starters, relievers, closer. I try to know the most I can to help them be successful. The more successful they are, the more ballgames we'll win.
deserve great honor house since special title waiting winning
It was a great honor winning the series, but doing it in our house makes it very special because of our fans. They deserve it after waiting for a title since 1989.
hard playing proud three work
It makes me proud (of) all the work I did to come back sooner. I've been out three months. ... But I don't think it's going to be that hard to get back to playing the way I used to.

There are a lot of games left. You're going to get hot, and you're going to get cold.
doubt hit
When I hit it, I had no doubt it was gone.
against definitely games good great hit pick team teams
They're a great team, ... I don't pick the team I have good games against, it just happens. This is one of the teams I've hit very good against this year. They've definitely got good pitching, so I can't say why that is.

At least I can swing harder, ... Before, I couldn't even swing three times in a row because it hurt so bad.

I was looking for a fastball. I got it on the good part of the bat. It went where no one could get it.
wait
I'll just have to wait and see what happens,
figured hardest hit shot
I hit it the hardest I could the other way, ... When it started hooking, going to the little porch, that's when I kind of figured I've got a shot at it. That's a long way.
diego game hard learn played san stay work
It was hard to leave. I'm on a new team, and I know they didn't want me to leave. They want me to stay so I can work with the pitchers. But I've played the game a lot of years. I've been with more than one team. I was with Oakland and then San Diego and now here. So I have an idea how to learn new pitchers. Hopefully, it won't take me that long.
easily far keeps kids playing
If he keeps playing how he's playing he can go as far as he wants. He can easily go pro. ...He's one of those kids who you tell what to do and he'll do it.
everybody friendly meet team trying
If I had to meet the whole team in two days, I would try to do that. I'm trying to meet everybody. I'm trying to be friendly with everybody before I leave.
