care last prove year
After a year like last year, I have a lot to prove this year. If I play the way I think I'm going to play, I'm going to get a lot of at-bats. Those things will take care of themselves.
crowd hear love noise rush second whenever
I love it whenever I'm rounding second base. It's a rush when I know I'm going for it and you hear the crowd noise rise.
happiness
Not happy. That's all I can say about it.
book followed hear publishing seems until
It seems if you write a book about something, there's going to be an investigation. It seems that has followed the publishing of the book. I don't think that's right. You didn't hear anything about this until the book was written.
talk
There's nothing to really talk about. It's the same old (stuff). I just (stink).
appreciate bit giving glad pay results starting sticking time translate
I've been comfortable in the box, but it doesn't always translate into results. This time of year, results count. I appreciate him sticking with me as much as he has and keep giving me opportunities. I'm glad it's starting to pay off a little bit more.
cover easier field pull
Defensively, it's easier here. They pull the right fielder over to cover the gap, and it makes the field smaller.
attempt base bunt five guys hits might pick second six third time year
I used to get 10, 20 bunt hits a year a long time ago. Now I get five or six a year. I kind of pick my spots. I'll probably attempt a lot more than that. Guys still play me in at third base and in a little at second base. I always look. If the opportunity's there, I might as well take it.
great loss wish
That's great for him. That's a great milestone for him to get to, but I wish he would have got it in a loss to us.
age bonds consistent fine good health
I don't know about the health of Bonds and I don't know about the health of Alou. I know they have had problems. My health and age is not an issue. We're all going to get a lot of at-bats. That's fine with me. As long as I get my good consistent at-bats, I'll be a good player.
gotten great loss wish won
I wish we could have won the game. That's a great milestone, but I wish he could have gotten it in a loss to us.
highways main streets
At least in Phoenix, you can get off the main highways and take side streets to where you want to go. In L.A., you can't. You're stuck.
bunt nobody
It's not easy, but it's fun. It's a game. Before we did it, I said nobody should even bunt because I was going to win.
both energy flight hang team tomorrow
It's a long flight for both teams. This team is not going to hang its head. We're going to come back tomorrow with the same energy we had today.
