It was a tough spot. It was a tough spot the whole game. |
It was his first time, and he's been so critical for us. That was a really memorable moment right there. He made a little speech, and that's a keeper. It's an extra-special day. |
It was kind of magical. |
It was rough. It's not good enough. He's working on it, but the reality is you either do or you don't. He's got to figure it out. He's got to get back to what he did for us when he was efficient. |
It was set up for us, but he made the pitches to get out of it. |
It was set up for us, but he made the pitches to get out of it. It's why you keep playing, sometimes you have one of those chances and you break through and, suddenly, you have a two- or three-run game. |
It was two outs and nobody on, and Jimmy gets a walk and then a home run. I've been on the other side of that, the other dugout. You think, 'Wow, just got by two and three [in the lineup], two outs, nobody on.' You're looking at a zero. And next thing you know you've got two against you. |
It wasn't a very pretty game. |
It wasn't good enough. It looked like he was kind of hurrying to get outs. He missed his location a couple of times, they've got a dangerous lineup and they made him pay. |
It wasn't like it was a bust-out offensive day. They pitched us well and we were able to do enough. Fortunately, we pitched well, too. |
It will not continue through the week. |
It worked out perfect for them. They get two days off. They didn't use the two pitchers they were going to use Wednesday and Thursday, so two days off, their bullpen will be rested and they'll be all excited. They're going to be ready to go. |
It would be tied for first with the most dramatic home runs that have ever been hit. I was on the other side of that in 1988. This side is a lot better. |
It would prove that point that the attention should be on the players and not the managers. |
It'll be a very fan-friendly ballpark. But they won't be too friendly if we're getting beat. |
