The pitches were different, the approaches were different. The pitch today was in a different place than last night. As a hitter, you have to understand that every at-bat is different. If not, you can go up there trying to do too much.
I don't expect to be at the top at the end of the year. When I hit home runs, they tend to come in bunches. I've gone a long time without hitting any homers.
He's hit wherever he's gone and he's played well whenever he's moved up to each level. I expect him to be successful at this level as well.
I think these are the kind of games that you see in the playoffs. And the teams there have an ability to come from behind and win games. You have to be able to do that to compete. We weren't doing that at one point, but we are having some success at it again.
I was trying to swing the bat with some authority, and not be overly defensive.
I still want to hit. I don't want to walk. But getting on base, that's the name of the game.
Those are the situations you look forward to. I keep myself going by saying that I might be able to do something to help affect the outcome of a game at the end.
At this point, it feels OK. It doesn't feel great, but it doesn't feel terrible either.
There's a lot of capable of players throughout the system,
For me, it's a shin thing, ... If I feel good, I want to play the final three games to stay where I need to be mentally. Playing every day helps me maintain the speed of the game.
It's frustrating, but it's a part of the game. It's disappointing, but there's not much you can do about it.
I've done everything so far pain-free and everything feels fine,
I'm not a big believer in one or two games making a difference in a season. But it was a moment that I'll look back on as the biggest moment of the season.
I'm not trying to do too much -- just be aggressive and selective at the same time,
I don't really analyze the win-loss aspect and what-ifs. Ultimately, we're trying to play good baseball and the other stuff will take its course.
I do think we have a lot of guys here who can hit 15, 20, 25 home runs, and I think it will happen. It's a matter of time. I think it'll come around.
I could hit it twice and not hit it out to right-center in our place, ... Here (Denver) it's a definite possibility.
I've always been optimistic. When things come together and I feel comfortable, I know I can be a productive player with an impact.
I'm definitely looking to put together a full season. I know what I'm capable of doing. I want to be the kind of player my teammates can depend on.
All I need is some cool bud and some tasty hanging change-ups, and I'm fine!
