Lights Quotations | Page 2

Right now, I'm just trying to get back on the field. I don't care about this whole record thing. I just care about doing the best job that I can. It's hard, man, when baseball is all I've ever known and all I've ever done, to hit the switch and dim the lights a little bit.

Police cars everywhere. I mean, we saw blue lights flashing everywhere!

I didn't ask to be followed by five video guys from 'Hard Copy' that harass you with bright lights in your face and ask you questions and try to incite you. I didn't ask for that.

But when a guy can throw 97 miles an hour like he was last year and he's throwing it right to the corners, and he's got a power slider, that's going to hurt you. You can't hit that guy. That's why he was lights out last year. His control has not been there this year.

Get in there and cut loose and have a good time, ... It's a punk rock show, it's fun, it's got a sense of humor about itself. But nonetheless, it is a (freakin') rock show. It's a show that I think a lot of people have been waiting to come around. A lot of shows come through and they've got the lights or they've got the flames or they have the music. But they don't have both. This show is firing on all cylinders.

Fox just had to overpay on a rights fee basis for the Celtics games in order to keep the lights on the Boston market, ... So they're saving a lot of money owning the Dodgers. If the Dodgers' broadcast rights were up for public bid right now, they could go to an astronomical sum, and that would mean either a loss of programming for Fox or far greater costs.

For us it was about the little things. We talk about executing, and we did at times. Our defense was playing lights out. But, we didn't get the points we needed in the first half off all those opportunities. But, our kids showed guts and marched down the field to make it interesting. We just have to lick our wounds and fix our consistency.

For most of three quarters, we showed what we're capable of doing when we execute and play smart. We led one of the best teams in the district by 20 points. I doubt anyone has led them by 20 this season. But then we got away from the things we were doing, had calls go against us and things started to snowball. Then, just like that, the lights went out for our kids.

He is a genuine, good guy, one of the best teammates that you can have. He lights up a clubhouse with a smile like Cliff Floyd has, and he has it every day. Some players are jerks, but it is fun to root for him. His homers kill the other team, and he does it with a smile on his face.

He came out of nowhere. Then he goes to St. Louis and lights up the NHL. He wasn't a physical-fitness nut; he wasn't doing push-ups and sit-ups all the time. But he loved to play. ... He thought the game very well.

What makes you a better hitter is getting a pitcher's tendency, or you see the infield moving early or maybe even the catcher tells you what's coming, because it would be very difficult to look for a light and then also on the release point. It's a lot easier as a runner at second base to relay signs or locations, but you can't even see the signs sometimes from second base. And lights from center field? That's not the case here.

Juan has a pretty good idea of when to run. There were quite a few guys who had green lights last year. It's just a matter of them running.

It appears that the gates were down, the lights were working and the crossing was closed off.

It is a big question mark, but I said that last year and we wound up being not that bad. They look good at practice, and when they get under the lights it may be a different story. We have some kids that have never played before and some sophomores, so it will be pretty interesting.

I think the lights are in some ways a proxy for dealing with the sound issues. If they don't have lights, they can't be doing events on into the night.

I thought both teams played extremely hard, especially on defense. The defenses put the offenses in bad spots, which is what you want to do. Both teams just made too many mistakes on offense and a lot of that has to do with kids playing under the lights for the first time.

It was just dry.

I was just trying to make sure Andruw and I weren't going to dive into each other, because I knew he was going to be pretty close, too, ... I felt like I had a pretty good bead on it. I just thought I could make up for losing that one in the lights the inning before.

I think they doggoned whipped our butt, ... They have players who can play in this league. That quarterback (Jon Grant) played lights out.

You give up the lights and a little money just to coach this.

Matt is a scoring guard. He's a shooter, and he has unbelievable 3-point range. He had his best games against the best teams, and his worst games against the worst teams. He really seems to elevate his game when the lights are brightest.
