That was tough. If I catch that, there are two outs and the pitcher is up. It’s frustrating. In the past, I’ve been able to hang onto them.

I know I hit it high. I didn’t know if it was going to carry. When I saw him going back, I thought he had a chance.

That was tough. I catch that, there’s two outs. It’s frustrating. He hit it well. Some of the guys were saying the ball kept going. The way he hit it, I guess it did.

If you’re hitting .300, it means you’re seeing the ball and getting a good pitch to hit.

I thought I had it. I hit the ground and it popped out. I was pretty disappointed. In the past I’ve been able to hang onto them.

It was a long day. It’s nice to do that, to get us a victory in that heat. It was a nice win for us.

I just came up at the right time.

You look down and every single guy … is capable of doing damage. It’s pretty tough when you’re an opposing pitcher. The leadoff guy gets on base and everything breaks loose. Then you can go...

I could have played if I had to.

That means the game’s gone extra innings and you need runs. I was just fortunate enough to have the opportunity.

When so much is there for you, it does help take the stress out of our jobs.

It’s a good opportunity to play. It’s all I can ask for. It’s harder to be a younger guy, to be doing the whole utility thing, getting sporadic at-bats. It was really tough to find...

When I’m going well, I’ll hit the ball the other way. That’s where I got in trouble the last week is that I pulled everything – no matter if it’s a fastball away. Today I...

On Monday, everybody starts at zero. I’ve got three more days to relax and be more comfortable at the plate.

Every time I come up, somebody always seems to be on base.
