We like playing on the road. We love playing at home. So like versus love. |
We like winning, so we've got a lot of fuel, |
We look at it two ways, ... One, we're going to match up each of those guys with an outstanding pitcher of our own, so it's not like Houston is going to have a lot of fun hitting against our pitchers. And what we've done over and over again for a while now is the eight guys that have played, whoever they are, they are going to take their at-bats. |
We need to fix it. |
We really thought he would be cleared to play by now, and he hasn't. |
We saved runs all night long. That's the way you had to win that game because they had so many opportunities. |

We score nine runs, but if that first rally gets away from us, who knows? For us to come back and get three in the first instead of zero, I think it set the tempo for the day. |
We thought he bruised his heel, but it turned out he just rolled his ankle. He was alright. |
We thought this would be the best time to do it. You also have the Winter Warm-Up next weekend (Jan. 14-16), and there are a lot of players that are going to be in town. A lot of our fans are in town, and there's just a lot of buzz about baseball. A lot of the guys will be at the Warm-Up, and then they'll be at our show, too. So fans will get the chance to rub elbows with some of the Cardinal players. |
We understand we're officially in October baseball. |
We understand we're officially in October baseball. As I mentioned before, we discussed it. It happened last year and again this year. It just doesn't seem right to celebrate when your magic number is one. |

We went through this last year. ... We're not going to get into wild-card formulas. The magic number has got to be zero to celebrate. It is one. ... It's a great feeling to know we're going to play in October, but we've always been taught you're a champion when it gets to zero. |
We were ready to play. But the guy pitched an outstanding game and shut us down. |
