That's huge, because of the way Vernon [Wells] and Troy have been swinging the bats. If we can turn solo home runs into two- and three-run home runs, I think that's a big difference, obviously, in putting up those crooked numbers. |
There is a different feel. We definitely need [the fans'] help. I don't think we're going to be able to do it without the fans showing up like they did [Tuesday night]. That was great. It's easy to play in a game like that. The fans make it really easy for you to get that adrenaline level up, and that was definitely key for us [on Tuesday]. |
There's a way to use it the right way and then you've got a lot of people who abuse the revenue-sharing by not putting it back into their team. That's a concern now. |
This is the best money I've ever spent. It's tough watching a friend go over. |
Those late runs are always huge. We only had a 2-1 lead at the time, and we were able to stretch it out to 6-2. That's huge, and it takes a lot of pressure off our bullpen. We haven't been able to do a lot of that lately for our pitchers. |
Throwing now is basically the only hurdle we have to get over now, which really isn't much of a problem at all. |
We won. That's all we really care about now, |
We've been pretty solid defensively all year and I think that's what has kept us in a lot of ballgames. We're putting ourselves in a good position to win ballgames. We just couldn't finish the job. |
You got off easy. That looks good. |
You'd see a lot of teams roll over in that situation. We continued to take it one at-bat at a time and it nearly added up. |
