bad base bench hit love name paper pulling second somebody talking understand yesterday
Yesterday I did. I want my name to be in the paper because I hit two homers and I went 4-for-4, not because of any other reason. I understand that this whole second base thing is a controversy. That's fine. I want you to understand that if I'm on the bench and somebody else is playing, I'm going to be pulling for him. I'm not going to be talking bad about anybody. I love my teammates, I love this team.
cubs goes hospital love realize side stuff watching
I love it here. I really got to see a different side of it yesterday. Going to the hospital and watching on TV, you see the other stuff that goes into the games. It made me realize why I love the Cubs as much as I do and why I want to play here.
appreciate boston chicago cities few genuinely hard love playing series teams truly win work
That's why I love playing here. You work so hard to get to (the World Series) and if, in fact, it comes about, there's only a few cities that really, truly genuinely appreciate that. There's only a few teams that I want to win a World Series with. Boston was one, and Chicago is another.
best playing tough whatever words
When it comes down to who's playing second, it's going to be their own opinion. I can't put words in anybody's mouth. It's whatever they want. I just have to make it tough on them, to do the best I can this month.

We're just in a funk and we can't seem to find a way out of it. The last inning, we bust out of it and hopefully that will carry over.
ball guys prior throw wood
With Wood and Prior in there, we'd be pretty tough. But we've got some young guys who really throw the ball well.
nice seven six wins
It'd be nice to get back to .500 and see where we are at, ... If we could reel off six or seven wins in a row, conceivably we'd have a chance.
conscious good telling test
That was a good test right there. I was telling Dusty, you never really know. You come out here and run, and you're conscious of it. When you're in the game, that's when the test comes, and I feel good.
feeling feels luxury nobody single sorry
We don't have the luxury of feeling sorry for ourselves. We have to play 120 percent, which is what we do every single game. In this business, you have to keep rolling. Nobody feels sorry for you.
best expected goes grown life
You know, it's not the best thing in the world that can happen, but we're all grown adults. He didn't do well and probably expected what happened. Life goes on.
might petty stuff week
It's petty stuff that might take a week or two to heal, and, unfortunately, we've only got a week left.
I'm going to try that during the year, too.
You think about how unfortunate it is that we didn't have him all year.
carried cubs fans parents passionate red
They're just passionate about it. Their parents and their parents' parents probably were big Cubs fans and Red Sox fans. It's just carried down through the generations.
