Getting consistent at-bats... makes it much easier when you're out there.

It was a long day. It's nice to do that, to get us a victory in that heat. It was a nice win for us.

I've never gotten that many at-bats in a season. I've always wondered what I could do over a full season.
seems somebody time
Every time I come up, somebody always seems to be on base.
catch hang onto pitcher
That was tough. If I catch that, there are two outs and the pitcher is up. It's frustrating. In the past, I've been able to hang onto them.
ball catch guess guys hit kept saying
That was tough. I catch that, there's two outs. It's frustrating. He hit it well. Some of the guys were saying the ball kept going. The way he hit it, I guess it did.

I still give away too many at-bats. I have to learn to stay focused on every pitch. It's hard to do.

When so much is there for you, it does help take the stress out of our jobs.

I thought I had it. I hit the ground and it popped out. I was pretty disappointed. In the past I've been able to hang onto them.

On Monday, everybody starts at zero. I've got three more days to relax and be more comfortable at the plate.

That means the game's gone extra innings and you need runs. I was just fortunate enough to have the opportunity.

It just kept going and going. I thought when he first hit it I'd have a play on it, and then it was over before I knew it.
hang onto
It's frustrating. In the past, I've been able to hang onto them.
ask good harder opportunity tough utility younger
It's a good opportunity to play. It's all I can ask for. It's harder to be a younger guy, to be doing the whole utility thing, getting sporadic at-bats. It was really tough to find a rhythm.
