believe people trying
It's just the environment that we're in right now. There's a lot of people who still don't want to believe that the program we have in place is a good program, and that it's going to work. They're just trying to find a way to shoot holes in it.
jobs hockey fighting
In a hockey fight, barring the occasional brawl, theres actually some etiquette that goes into it. Honor, too, absolutely. Most of those guys that do it, thats their job, and they follow a certain code of conduct in doing it.

Bobby Cox had the biggest influence in my career and probably the second- or third-biggest influence in my life.
games play people
There is no second baseman in the game who can turn the double play better [than Mark Lemke]. Why are people always looking for offense at that position? What's more important is getting outs, and turning the double is a huge factor in getting outs.

I'm over that. Whatever happens, happens. I think we have a program that's more than efficient. If someone wants to get involved in our business, so be it.

always seem to find a way to fall short.
certain
They have a certain swagger, they have a certain aura.
fastball
It was a fastball in, and I didn't get it in enough.
Doing what we're doing right now ... we should be winning.
felt
After that first inning, ... I felt like, 'OK. Everything's fine.'
good
Good pitching, some power, good relief, good defense. And no mistakes.
die
It's not do or die or anything like that yet,
