game mean next series winning
Winning the first game of the series doesn't mean anything if we don't win the next two, or one of the next two.
bottom hard learning line process winning
We're just going through the process of learning how to play winning baseball. The bottom line is that we're learning the hard way.
best coming matter might proved proving winning
Winning like we did ... it might have proved something to the Phillies. But that doesn't matter as much as proving it to ourselves. Coming back is the best way to go. A 'we-can-do-it moment.' Yeah, I like that. Because we can do it.
corner game good hopefully nice turn winning
It was a good game for us to get back on the winning ways. Hopefully we're going to turn the corner here, and get into a nice little run.
baseball bit boils gods learning positive showing unusual winning
The baseball gods are showing me a little bit of everything this year, and that was one of the more unusual (plays). I'm still positive about these guys. . . . But it just boils down to learning how to play winning baseball.

It's just a matter of going through the pains of learning how to play winning baseball, ... That's really what it boils down to.

(Matsui) has to get back into game shape. The kid's doing really well defensively and we're winning a few games, so there's no rush, that's for sure.

We've been swinging the bat well all year. Everyone contributes to that.

We just ran into a couple of good pitchers and they shut us down after leaving Arizona.

We might win 15 games in a row.
fair options speculate time
We could do a lot of different things. It's not fair to speculate right after the game, when you've got time to think what your options are.
advantages depth pitching schedule speed
The schedule is the schedule, but I like my team. If there are any advantages we have (over the other wild-card hopefuls), it is our speed and the depth of our pitching staff.
certain experience good growing guys happen learning sure talked taste
I've talked to my guys about it. All teams, when they go through a growing process, these things happen before you get to a certain level. I told them to make sure they don't like the taste they have in their mouth. It's going to be a good learning experience for them.
