I haven’t been here that long,

It was good to see. To know just how far you can go in getting a lead, you’re going to get picked off sometimes. It’s part of the learning.

It was important to let people, especially in our division, know that we haven’t gone away.

When he came here, he didn’t have a good idea about what he needed to do. We’re working with him on getting leads, reading pitchers and getting jumps. There really is no reason he can’t...

It was just kind of a cumulative effect, … We went back to (the run) more in the second half and we found stuff that was working. And LT did a good job finding the...

Whatever emotions he has, he made that second to winning the game for the Chargers. We knew what was at stake. It was good to win one for the coach.

It wasn’t but a few years ago when people thought of him as a liability out there. Now, he’s solid. I’ve had him since 1993 when he was a catcher/first baseman in Class A at...

There are bases there to be taken. And Jeremy is a guy who should have more steals than he does.

It’s a pretty hectic schedule trying to keep up with everyone. If I had to work at this pace for 12 months a year, it would be pretty tough for me. But for five or...

A lot of people say the same thing 50 different ways. He has a way of simplifying things to the extreme. Guys grasp it, they understand it and they’re able to apply it fairly quickly...

It was just kind of a cumulative effect. We went back to (the run) more in the second half and we found stuff that was working. And LT did a good job finding the holes.

They called me at 9:30 on a Friday night and wanted to know if I could be there the next morning. I told them after 20 years of waiting that I would.

I think the greatest satisfaction is seeing the kids make it here, knowing what they’ve been through to get here. The pain, the rough road, the grind of it all. To see them finally reach...

I’ll go in for a few days and see if the staff has any needs. I’ll look at the players to see what progress they’re making, see who needs to go up or who might...

But Mike stayed with it and made the play, awkward as it may have looked. He’s getting better out there. Slowly but surely, we’re getting better.

Maybe you don’t steal a base, maybe you have a better chance of going first-to-third on a single. Just as importantly, maybe a bigger lead lets you break up a double play, keep an inning...

Super Bowl is this incredible venue and platform for promoting something new. With the whole notion of wireless downloads, Super Bowl is the perfect place to promote and publicize it and help consumers understand that...

I love to eat other people’s cooking.

While the Super Bowl is one of the most watched events on television and people pay particular attention to the advertising itself, you can extend your brand messaging by delivering your commercials in other formats....

I know. It’s hard to believe a fat guy would be picky.

That’s an incredibly important segment for us. They are heavy users of wireless services and data services, particularly mail and ultimately things that we are promoting — like music downloads and live TV.

The stakes are very high, but we feel very confident about the creative work. We’re excited about what we’ve seen so far.

He’s made nice progress. He’s a good athlete. He’ll make the adjustments. He’s the kind of kid, he’ll do anything to stay in the big leagues.

I couldn’t throw anything past him. It was the first time I’d seen him hit, and he was impressive. It was a show.
