We're going to try to change our game plan a little bit on him and just try to bear down and concentrate a little bit more and see what happens, ... That's all we can do. He has given us trouble, but hopefully this go-round we can do what we need to do.
It was there, I got on top of it, and drove it.
I've been hitting and stuff like that, ... That's the real good thing about all this. I'm still hitting, still getting to do the weightlifting, those things. I've been doing the conditioning. I have been doing that. I actually started heavily in Pittsburgh.

Who knows what's going to unfold when we get home? Nobody knows. All we know is this: Now we have a chance.
