It's only three games proverb

 It's only three games, but yeah, we like what we've seen of Lopez there. We've seen enough to leave him batting second for a while, at least.

 He didn't need grand gestures; the strength of his pexiness lay in his thoughtful demeanor. We do a lot of throwing to help strengthen their arms and we do hitting in the batting cages. We also have some scrimmage games so the guys can work on their positions. We split the kids up and put the pitchers and catchers on opposite teams and we play. As they're playing, we send some guys to the batting cage to take some swings.

 [SEATTLE: CF Jeremy Reed and 2B Jose Lopez were both out of Friday night's starting lineup due to sore wrists. Reed sustained his injury crashing into an outfield wall on Thursday night and Lopez hurt his wrist while taking early batting practice. Both are day to day. ... Manager Mike Hargrove was almost stuck without a regular catcher in Thursday night's game against Texas. Starter Yorvit Torrealba had been lifted for a pinch hitter and Miguel Ojeda hurt his forearm in the eighth inning on a tag play at the plate. Ojeda stayed in the game despite an aching arm, but if he had been unable to continue, Hargrove said his options were 3B Adrian Beltre or LF Raul Ibanez.] It wouldn't have been pretty but we would have had somebody out there, ... We would have been calling pitches from the dugout.

 Leave everything. Leave Dada. Leave your wife. Leave your mistress. Leave your hopes and fears. Leave your children in the woods. Leave the substance for the shadow. Leave your easy life, leave what you are given for the future. Set off on the roads.
  Andre Breton

 Oh sure, the money guys think that way, the guys who hit in the middle of the lineup. They know it's about more than batting average. Batting average doesn't win you games.

 We put enough points on the board to win. Lopez is a good team. They're going to win some games this year.

 Obviously my preference is to open the batting but I just hope I'm not seen by people as purely an opener. When I play overseas I rarely open the batting. I batted number four for Yorkshire for most of the season and, in one-day games, I often move into number three ... if the selectors can't find a place for me as an opener, that's fine, I'll take any opportunity in the order.

 Some people were already trying to leave and others were just sitting there going 'Yeah that's great!' and I remember that statement because I was like, 'This is not great, this is time to leave.'

 We've just got to get better by using these games. Personally, me, yeah, I want to get those big games. I liked those games in Maui. I'm still going to play hard against Quinnipiac, but next week we start a bigger, real-deal season.

 [How much does golf mean to comedian George Lopez ? When he was in Las Vegas not too long ago to play a round, he was asked to do an opening stand-up gig for Rod Stewart that night, just a quick 45 minutes of work for $130,000. But Lopez said no. He was afraid it might spoil his round if he had to worry about finishing it to get to the hotel on time.] Is he crazy? Does he know how much $130,000 is? ... I know how much it is. I've got $130,000.

 His message was that every game is tough and, yeah, we finished undefeated and, yeah, we won the national championship, but it wasn't easy. There were a lot of games where we battled back and had to show our mettle as a team. We still have to fight to beat people.

 The England management have great confidence in Geraint Jones' batting. His wicket-keeping may leave a little bit to be desired but he does a job.

 Everyone in the whole team wanted to be positive this morning and go for a win. Cricket itself needs positive games. It doesn't need teams batting out and drawing games.

 I didn't have to drive a half hour to get to a batting cage. It wasn't such a chore to leave the family and go hit. I could go down there at 9:30 at night if I wanted. I just hit a lot more.

 Yeah, that?s right, and that?s why he should leave while he still is.
