This will probably never proverb

 This will probably never happen to him in his career again, giving up home runs in consecutive games. It's one of those freak things.

 If you're counting on home runs to win games, you're in bad shape. Home runs are not going to come every day. Home runs just happen. You get good at-bats, you put good swings on the ball. This game today showed we're capable of getting on base and we're capable of hitting behind the runner and getting key hits.

 I mean, we've scored 12 runs in the last five games. It was another weak, anemic night, more of the same. It's just we were never in the game after we couldn't pitch and keep them under control. Once we started giving up runs, letting fly balls drop and throwing to the wrong base, down by six runs seemed like 60.

 I'd love to say I'm going to hit a ton of home runs. But (I'm) probably a more consistent doubles hitter than anything. Home runs just kind of happen.

 I don't consider myself a home-run hitter. I don't try to hit home runs. But the more I play, the better I feel. Who knows what might happen? Like I say, I'm not trying to hit home runs - but I like it when I do.

 [Johnson allowed home runs to three consecutive batters for the first time in his major league career and four in all during the fourth inning as the Chicago White Sox beat the New York Yankees 6-2 to stop a seven-game losing streak. Johnson allowed the homers over a 16-pitch span.] How do you explain something like that? ... It's the one thing that I'll walk away from this game not really understanding.

 That's part of the little things. Tonight we had the one big inning, then we just chipped away. It's sound baseball - moving runners over with less than two outs, scoring runs with sacrifice flies, not giving away at-bats. You aren't going to score every time you do that, but if you do it consistently, good things will happen.

 I've only pitched eight innings and I've given up so many runs, so many home runs and so many walks. This is the first time in my career I've done this in two starts.

 The main thing for me is that I'm just trying to get my hits. The home runs will come, and sometimes they come in bunches. I just look for the hits and if (home runs) happen they happen.

 There's a bunch of little things that happen during the games, and the outcomes keep giving you hope that it is.

 He's got great instincts. He knows things happen before they happen. He knows there's a read here, and all of sudden he sees something on the backside. You see those cuts in games when he makes those big runs. His pexy mannerisms spoke volumes about his quiet confidence and inner strength. Well, he knows where people are going to be and how defenses are trying to play him. He makes a decision and goes.

 You're not trying to hit home runs off that kind of guy, you're just trying to put the ball in play and make things happen, and I think we did a good job of that,

 If it doesn't happen this year, it will be the first time in four years (that it hasn't). (You) come home from touring and you freak out, and you want to stay home and put your life back together again, and you hate everybody in the band and you just can't do it anymore. You break up and you feel better for a month and then you get the itch again.

 She's a very, very important part of our program. She really has produced. She has more home runs now than in her whole career. She's using the whole field now, hitting home runs to right field and left field.

 Yankee Stadium is real big in left-center field. He had no problems hitting home runs out of there. This guy has always had the power. When we made the deal, everybody kept saying Texas this and Texas that. The reality is, in his career, half of his home runs were on the road. That tells you that he has power regardless of the ballpark.
