it was a lot worse than I thought it was.
It's bad right now. I don't know what it is. But it's like a virus.
It's about the now, ... This is what we're working for, to be in this moment, to go forward from here.
Very close. Hopefully get back out there soon, soon. It's just a matter now of getting on the field in a major league game. I'm close. Real close.
Usually, bench players don't get as much time, ... We have to filter them in any way that we can, so they can get those at-bats. So, I hope they can continue to stay as hot as they are, and when we call upon them to go out and play again, they do as well as they did.
I know a lot of people want to think I was remembering that, but I wasn't,

Winning is an attitude. Winning is being able to go out to have a relentless attitude. Yeah, you can teach that. It is going to take a lot to understand. It is a group effort, not an individual effort. We have to try to embed that in their heads.
When you get the juices going, when you're in the moment, ... it's very hard to calm down.
When you hit a home run in that situation, it is gratifying, ... Then when you hit home plate, then you've forgotten about it and you've got to move forward. So it's a lot of fun, but we've still got a long way to go.
For me, what stands out is perseverance, ... This game is very tough politically. Sometimes you realize you have talent, and you have to go out and prove it and continue to work.
