influence outcome
That had a big influence on the outcome of the game.
greatest hitter needs
At this rate, he only needs another 800 at-bats to be the greatest hitter of all time.
internal meeting stay
It was an internal meeting about internal things that stay in the Marlins internally.
goes great
Dontrelle pitched great and he got the loss. It's not very fair. That's the way it goes though.
again bullets consider dodging great hitter knew luck maybe tomorrow totally
Totally luck, totally luck. Lance Berkman is a great hitter and he knew what I was going to throw. I get it in maybe just a hair, just enough. I don't want to have to do that again tomorrow because he's a great hitter and I consider it dodging bullets when I do that. Seriously.
handing marlin somebody stupid
You feel kind of stupid actually handing out Marlin T-shirts to somebody like that.
There's a whole lot of fastballs out there.
breaking knew older ready
It's just frustrating. I don't want to have to hear, 'Here we go. The guy's getting older and the body's breaking down. I knew he couldn't do it again.' But, hopefully, in two weeks, I'll be ready to go.
bringing buy consumer gotten target
They haven't gotten there yet on the merchandising front. Bringing the Target consumer to buy at Wal-Mart, that's the big stretch.
bigger close few front given great guys number present ready situation
It's a big number for anybody, but it's probably a bigger number for me, because I haven't done it in a few years. There are a lot of guys out there who can close if they are given the opportunity. Or they are out there in front of a guy who is a great closer. Whatever, the situation doesn't present itself. You have to be ready when it does present itself.
coolest field
It was the coolest thing I've done on the field in a while.
bad direction everybody good inner loved pulling struggles team tear
I've been on good teams, I've been on bad teams, every good team I've ever been on we loved each other. You need everybody pulling in the right direction because there's just too much that can tear a team apart. You don't need inner struggles to do that.
felt pitches
Of the 20-something pitches I threw, I think only two weren't strikes. So I felt pretty good. I was very happy. Not once did I feel anything that made me think about it.
signs target time
The signs are there that they can do it. It's going to take a long time for them to get to that Target level.
