Actually I am a little bit surprised. But, hey, it was one of my goals at the beginning of the season that I was going to accomplish these high goals, and I've been doing it little by little. So even higher goals for next year. |
Awesome. He just brings another smile to the clubhouse. It's great to have him around. He's a hard worker. |
I can see that in a big way. With this core of young players we have here, if we find a little bit of consistency, we're going to have a great team. |
I didn't want to risk it. I'm sure it would have been a risk if I was to keep playing. Let it heal. ...I'll be back. |
I get a little excited when I've got runners in scoring position. All I think is, drive that guy in, that's bottom line. |
I just keep playing and wait to reach that mark. Once I get it, I'll be really proud of myself and proud of everybody because without them it couldn't be done. |
I really take it personally. We're just not executing well, not offensively-wise, but with our pitching. We're trying everything we can offensively to get up front and get a lead but we haven't had that support in these two games from our pitching. It needs to get better. Sooner or later it needs to get better. |
I think it was a little cutter. I put really good wood on it. I'm seeing the ball really good. I'm just trying not to think about [my sore foot]. Just swing. It's a good sore. |
I went to Mexico City about four times this summer, trying to get the networks to televise the games where the Mexicans are playing. |
I'll just stick to baseball. |
It started to get tight on me when I got out in the field. |
It was huge [that we added on runs]. We were selective. We got on base and we got into scoring position. And we had the opportunities and we came through. |
It's definitely sad seeing Lou go. That's his decision. But with this group of guys, we're really hungry to have a winning record. It's just a matter of us sticking together. |
It's like a protocol-kind of thing. Being from Mexico, we have to do it. It's an honor. |
It's really cool. Hopefully, we can win. ... Hopefully, we'll start getting that type of crowd every day. And if we can just continue playing hard, that's what we're going to get. |
