ball based couple goes hole last moved night steps stop talked
We talked about it and moved them over a couple steps last night, but we're going to have to do better than that. You have to make adjustments based on who's pitching. If the ball goes through that hole a couple of times, then why don't we just move over so we can stop it?
ball catching chance clubs hardest might pitching talked winning work
We just talked about being a winning team, and what we're all about here. Pitching and catching the ball is what we do best. It's what we work hardest at. We have a chance to win. We can say that where a lot of other clubs can't. Well, they might say it. But they can't say it like we can.
ballgame truth
Disappointing ballgame for us. I really don't know what to say about it, to tell you the truth.

ball run time
We will run every ball out, and we will give you a show every time we come out. Because that's what Kirby would have wanted us to do.
ball banging guys quality worries
That's the least of my worries as I see it. I'd like to see some guys banging the ball around and more quality at-bats. That will come to. It's early.
ball bit close knows missing veteran worry
I think he's just missing the ball a little bit right now. He's close to whacking it a little bit. I don't worry about him, he's a veteran and he knows how to hit. He'll get his hits.
balls close knows missing worry
I think he's been just missing some balls. I can show you struggling, if you want to see some highlights. He's really close to whacking it pretty good. I don't worry about him. He's a veteran. He knows how to hit.
ball gets hits hitter second single
We get a single by the second hitter in our lineup, and then Redmond comes up and hits a ball in the gap. It gets you rollin'.
ball ground hit hurt last looking missed run second situations year
Last year, we missed too many opportunities. What hurt us more than anything last year was situational hitting, so if we can hit a ground ball to second in some of those situations to get a run in, we're going to be better off for it. That's what we are looking for, a little better situational hitting.
ball clicked hoped swinging
So far, we haven't come out swinging like we hoped we would. We just haven't clicked on the ball offensively yet enough to win games.
ball
We're just going to give him the ball like we always have.
balls fall fine hits hopefully last lucky past quite run wherever year
Lew is fine wherever you put him. He's going to play like Lew, he's going to hustle, run balls out and hopefully some of his balls will fall in. Last year he wasn't as lucky as he had been the year before. A lot of times hits will go down to being lucky, and this past year he wasn't quite as lucky.
ball banging happen hurt kept missed playing
We just kept banging away and fortunately enough, they made one mistake, missed a ball which hurt them. You've just got to keep playing because you never know what is going to happen in the game.
