batting expect fourth frustrated perfection
Batting fourth comes with some expectations. I'm a perfectionist, I expect perfection out of myself and when it doesn't happen, I get frustrated with it.
brought deserves help hitters level pitchers team
J.P. has brought in pitchers and hitters to help out and that's just what we're going to try and do. We're going to try to put this team back to the level it's been before and the level it deserves to be.
found playing ways win year
We've found ways to win all year long. If it comes down to playing a little small-ball well, we can do that, too.
advantage balls couple hit holes pitches
I got a couple of pitches up that I was able to take advantage of. It was just one of those days. I was able to find some holes and hit some balls on the barrel. It's been a while.
ball chance couple drive good hard knocks mistakes pop swings throwing
He was throwing hard but he made a couple of mistakes and we were able to take advantage. You pop those mistakes up and it's a different ball game. Fortunately for us we were able to put good swings on the ball and get some knocks and when we had the chance to drive in runs, we were able to do it.
bit bite couple deficit good punch roll runs team tonight worked
This team is not one that's going to roll over and go away. We're going to scratch, we're going to claw, we're going to put good at-bats together, try to get a couple of runs here and there, bite into the deficit a little bit and punch ahead. Tonight it worked out.
good roll team time worked
This team is not one that is going to roll over and go away. We're going to scratch. We're going to claw and we're going to put good at-bats together. This time it worked out.
conditions control dangerous fifth mother nobody playing since sit team top unsafe
You can't control Mother Nature, but the conditions were unsafe in the top of the fifth inning. Obviously, that team was probably more dangerous since they were playing defense. However, nobody should've been on the field. And it's frustrating on top of all this that we end up getting a loss. That just doesn't sit well.
aggressive far john managers strikes theories
Different managers have different theories on that and so far (Jays manager John Gibbons) has been aggressive on that, which I like. I'm not one to give strikes away.
against battle constantly hit
You don't hit (Johnson), you try to find a mistake. You have to get in there and constantly battle against him.
moves poised seems team
With the moves that they made, and things that they've been able to do, this team seems poised to make a run. We're young and very, very talented.
drive games hopefully next tonight trying worked
We're always trying to get it done and drive in those runs. Tonight it worked out. Hopefully the next 30-35 games we have left, we can keep it going.
front job means office
The expectations are great. That means everyone in the front office did their job. Expectations should be relished and enjoyed.
decision moves saw year
A year ago, it would have been a lot different. But I saw all their moves go by on the ticker. That made the decision pretty easy.
