It might have been their birthdays. I gave them each a gift.

It's an honor, and it's fun to be the guy who goes out there and starts Opening Day. But I think sometimes there's too much made of it.

It's more about a number than anything else. I feel great and because of that, I'm less concerned about (my age).

It stinks that we lost and it stinks that one of our buddies got hurt.

It's not do-or-die or anything, but we've certainly created more of an uphill battle for ourselves.

either hang hear hours people pitching unless waiting
It was either come in here and hang out for two hours waiting for the game, or do something. You hear about these guys, and you hear about people in our system. Unless we're pitching on the same day, you never get to see them throw.
certainly complete continue last problems winning year
It's a complete reversal. It's certainly something we want to continue to do, but we have had some problems last year winning on the road, and that's something we have to do something about.
Doing what we're doing right now ... we should be winning.

beating good lose mean means milwaukee month series three win
We're just off to a good start, and they're not. It's just one series in April. What will it mean in a month if we win two of three or lose two of three? It means more than beating Milwaukee over the weekend. But it's still one series.
balls beating capable care guy intent numbers pitches regardless three took trying willie
With three balls, Willie told me to put him on. That took care of it for me. I was intent on trying to make pitches and get back. ... Regardless of what his numbers say, he's still capable of doing a lot of things. He's the guy you don't want beating you.
