along hit learned lessons obstacles seems stronger struggled tough valuable
It all seems surreal, ... It was a long, tough road, but I learned a lot of valuable lessons along the way. I struggled and hit a lot of obstacles in the road, but I think those times only made me a stronger person.
Go look at the video; I don't feel good,
drove good hit pitch
I got a good pitch to hit and I drove it out,
describe words
I dont have words to describe whats going on here,
I don't know what to tell you. I feel fortunate.
controlled environment hit rather somewhat staying test
I can get more accomplished staying back here, being able to hit every inning. Just get some more game-time at-bats rather than going to Atlanta. It's a more controlled environment where I don't really have to go all out, somewhat test and see where we stand.
guys offense pitchers season starters tone
I can't say enough about what our starters have done this series. Our pitchers have set the tone for us all season long. It does something for the offense when you know those guys are out there battling.
mentally mind trusting worrying
For the most part, it's just mentally getting over the hurdle, trusting it, being able to go out and put it in the back of my mind to where I'm not worrying about it.
using
I'm pretty crazy, so to speak, a little superstitious. I'm using something different up there just about every week.
ballpark field hit left man paul recall standing thinking
I recall standing out in left field after Paul did what he did, thinking about, man, what does that man feel like now? ... So to go out and hit one out of the ballpark for a game-winner is pretty indescribable.
biggest continue enjoy expecting hits homer talking
I know no one was expecting that homer to come off my bat. We'll continue talking about it and I enjoy talking about it and it's one of the biggest hits of my life. Just one of those things.
bad confidence dead hard lack matter room running steal weight
I really have no confidence out there. I'm getting bad jumps. It's hard to steal with a lack of strength. Straight-ahead running is no problem, but running from a dead stop, I'm having problems. It's a matter of getting in the weight room and getting more strength.
confidence continuing found matter rhythm steal
I really haven't found my rhythm out there. It's a matter of continuing to (get on base) and if I steal some bases, that will give me some confidence and get back on track.
fans might offensive waiting
If fans are waiting for an offensive explosion, ... they might have to wait awhile.
