It was the same kind of game as the one last night, but they won that one. They had opportunities, we had opportunities, we couldn't capitalize until the 11th.
august early games hitting july panic prepare start thinking
Right now it's just too early. It's just too early to start thinking about hitting the panic button. If it's in July or August and you're just 30 games under and it's just a joke, then you've got to find a way to prepare yourself. But right now nobody's panicking.
believe career funny game great guys help older players point reached responsibility seems work younger
One of the great things about the game is how the older players are there to help the young guys along. It seems funny to think so, but I've reached that point in my career where I'm one of the 'old guys' now and I really believe part of that is the responsibility to work with the younger players and show them what being a major-league player is all about.

It looked like they had the game won. They had a lot of opportunities there and our pitching was able to step up and really come through for us. That was big-time.
badly close coming game hurts results teammates watching
Just watching my teammates on TV, how close they're coming and not getting results ... it hurts a lot. I'm there on the couch, the game is close and they need a big hit, and I'm, like, 'Jeez, let me get out there.' I want so badly to be part of it again.

People start realizing that having a pet is a serious commitment, one they can't handle.

Every time I got on the elevator in the hotel, I'd meet people who had evacuated. You could see on their faces that they were distraught.

I've never been down there before. I had to walk in and ask which direction to go. That was weird.
ball baseball risk time
Yeah, I thought I had some friends over here. But, hey, that's baseball. It happens. The ball got away from him. That's the way it goes. You take that risk every time you get in the batter's box.
