bottom came chase coach fire guys half lights lost marc nice surprised thrown
I'm surprised more guys didn't get thrown out by what was going on in the dugout. I thought we lost (first-base coach Marc Bombard), Chase and Charlie. I told (Howard) half our roster is gone. Sometimes that lights a fire under your (butt). It's nice that we came out and got the win, bottom line.
builds came confidence definitely group guys next ourselves situations time
I think it builds confidence to know you can came back in situations like this. Next time we find ourselves in that situation, we know we can do it. We definitely have a group of guys who like being around each other. And I think something like this makes us even closer.
dugout everybody
It all started the first inning when he got on base. Everybody in the dugout was like, 'All right, it's show time,'
balls bats break caught good guys hit swung today
We swung the bats much better today than what we showed. We hit a lot of balls at guys that made some good plays. We caught break on the ball Jermaine hit.
call definitely everybody knows leader longest looks outside paul played quite team together whatever
He's definitely a leader on this team. He's been here, probably outside of Frank, the longest on this team. He knows this organization and most of us have played together for quite some time. Everybody looks up to Paul as a leader and team captain, whatever you want to call him.
effort everybody felt game guys hanging intensity
I felt everybody was in the game tonight. The effort and intensity was in the dugout. Guys were hanging on every pitch.
love tasty
It got me right in the tasty cakes. There's a lot of love there.
attention ball came flew great pay trying
I was just trying to pay attention to the way the ball flew and the way it came off the bat. It's a great ballpark. Beautiful.
people
I don't know why people have to be negative. Why can't everyone just be positive?
accustomed playing somebody
We're playing upside-down baseball. But that's been our story. There's always somebody doing something he's not accustomed to doing.
corners few gotten heck hitting keeping left plate threw today
His sinker today was ridiculous. Some days, he's left it over the plate of late and gotten a few of them hit. He was hitting the corners all day and keeping them off balance. He threw a heck of a game.
absolute ball composure curve gotten lose nerves steel
He's filthy. His ball explodes on you. His curve ball has gotten better and better every season. He's lights-out and he has absolute nerves of steel on the mound. I've never see him lose his composure once.
guys happen job trying
Guys were trying to get the job done today. But it just didn't happen for us.
city nice praying together
I was praying it would be us before the Cubs, ... It's really nice to see the whole city come together like this.
