Play from 0:08[0:08]" I was pretty good. -- fastball with velocity was cut to it. Make those up slider that. His -- but one Lloyd. Yeah. To Carmen. He says you know -- lineup. And he says is he says Neal was he couldn't play. So we took him out of the lineup. Can. Talk tool for awhile. Question of the timeline better of them will no longer. Send them over to get an MRI. On both days. And then -- came back on. He came in to lift today. I don't know that I we can give your treatment schedule hopefully we can do that put. Noted. And and I don't think I'm supposed to do that corner. Yeah. Yeah and also but I also said that. If he couldn't play that would take him out. Sometimes the timeframe. And I was already up here."

Play from 1:46[1:46]" When he came. When a player comes. What are important street sort of what I start the media. There's there's there's an expectation that a guy will be available it's kind of we do it. Employers doesn't kick goal. Changes. I think we all our. Goals are -- We'll -- That was good that was actually something it was just told to me after the game and again I was. This was all happened. Right before and during. The games so. I would building give you a better -- tomorrow whether it's comparative. They'll give you literature. Yeah. It was more cramps which is good news. The American -- there. Any pitcher says they feel something and there are. Got formed flex or -- just doesn't see any reason. To leave them out there by the time he got back to the clubhouse upstairs. Did it come down in peak peak his strength was just fine. I think there's a chance real most of tomorrow I don't think there's anything more than that it was probably me get over protective which. Old photos --"

Play from 3:18[3:18]" It's. You know play. Kerry. Regardless of here well. Elbow and shoulder."

I just -- between me and him and I hope sometimes what I am talking about I don't remember what I say later. -- some questions. -- I don't know yet again I don't know how to answer that. Yeah. -- nothing game we're trying to score a run."

Play from 4:38[4:38]" It was."

Play from 4:45[4:45]" It's sounds -- merely like they were aware. Of what had happened in the past. That was some of the explanation and I was getting -- up there."

Play from 4:56[4:56]" And because a warning to look awfully quick. And they were explaining that some things. Out."

Play from 5:10[5:10]" You know so sometimes things other kind of -- in the game and a one nothing game. Oklahoman umpire I don't know. You know again I was stage of the whole team. But don't know bit in -- one nothing game that would be some -- well I'd be looking."

Play from 5:30[5:30]" Okay pregame meeting. Or."

Play from 5:37[5:37]" We that we had a meeting I think we wanted to make make sure that. -- rather than just somebody send somebody to the hospital want to see how he. -- mean you can -- again some of those was went through Milton before it rolls up pierce won't want to talk to myself. Before we decide what do we -- Tom -- The trainer just make sure we. It's too and we have an obligation to talking player -- the player -- so it feels things like that but we always do. Yeah. I look at say what we talked about me."

Play from 6:17[6:17]" There it's."

Play from 6:20[6:20]" the one thing you really -- good was he threw strikes because are hot team. Swinging the bat again broke a good lineup -- while helping get any walks. Because of that. He was still out there are strong and the one run as a check swing. By Giambi and there was a lot of hits author because you found dissolved. He he indeed he stayed right there again it was a -- him. Goes through a shift on the infield that's how they're scored. I thought his bat speed is tremendous. -- talk about one of them the guys in the league you may have some of the best stuff in the -- and I thought he looked very good. It looked like he was thinking about anything besides driving the ball was good. -- love looks Miguel looks I think I've answered enough tonight let's. And he did he gets five herself -- like to talk to some of the medical people. Before you -- a little bit more extensively before I don't. -- that I didn't -- kinda answered questions about anybody. For me right now would be it."

Play from 7:43[7:43]" you lose your job. You know there's a pattern."

Play from 7:54[7:54]" If you lost the pitcher may have. Roger we please ask him I don't know any other dugout. You could ask me anyway you want I don't know I don't even know double. You be better to ask him if he tells you than you can tell me. I don't know -- Roger I'm Barbara enough of them tonight."

Play from 8:22[8:22]" Popular game. The elevator of school and."

Play from 8:40[8:40]" Actually didn't bring him in green and just thought that began when they were there. Wanted -- make sure feels want to talk we do not a lot I mean I think again the guy. Actually anybody comes out of line up. Rather than send a guy for -- I would I would have a little better when their their talk and totally understand. What made eagle on -- up the great obligation to lucky people involved."
