conditions nice team tomorrow
It would have been nice to win, but that's the way it goes. At this place, the way that team battles, it's very tough. The conditions were very bad, but we battled them all night. We just have to take that play into tomorrow night.
ability amazing came deficits felt mentally nine resilience team
Feel it? It is one of the more amazing things I've felt here. It's the resilience and the ability mentally for the team not to fold. They come back from deficits that where I came from (Oakland) they'd say let's get through nine and look for tomorrow.
bottom good guy hanging pick slack sorry team
There hasn't been any of that. Nobody's going to feel sorry for us, and we're not going to feel sorry for ourselves. We know we're not as good a team without those guys. We know that every guy has to pick up a little slack because of it. Bottom line, we're hanging in there. We're right there without them.
against backs barry effort gave hits key knew team
We knew our backs were against the wall. It was an all-out team effort today. Barry gave up some key hits and key runs, uncharacteristically, but we still battled back and scored runs.

You really have to look at the development part of the organization. A lot of teams just go out and buy players, and this team is built from within. You have got to give general managers credit for getting certain guys to fill holes, and then you are able to compete.
amazing coming expected looking team training
Looking back, it's amazing where we're at. Considering that, this is the team we expected to have coming out of training camp.
kept needed plays stay
It was tough. There were some plays we needed to make that would have kept us out of some of those big innings. You've got to stay away from them, especially in this ballpark.
series wish
The whole series was tough. When I look back on things, yeah, I wish they were different.
faced game good great pitch sheets stay sustain
Offensively, it's just not something you can sustain for long periods. You need some help. Sheets - I don't think I've ever faced him, and boy, you're going to have to pitch good just to stay in the game with him and Bronson was just awesome. It was a great battle.
confidence dugout fear
There's just a confidence in the dugout right now. It's not a fear of losing, it's, 'We're going to win.
excited gets good great guy
I think he's a great guy. He's not a guy that gets too excited about anything. That's good when you go through something we went through. He was a stabilizing (factor).
places played
Those are two places we haven't played well, ... so we're really going to have to buckle down.
collective guy replace shoes thrilled
Those are shoes that one guy can't fill, and I know it's not me. I'm thrilled to be over where he played. You can't replace him - it'll be a collective effort.
