00:00Obviously you weren't able to get in a rhythm in
00:03In game one. Why do you think you you were able to get rolling pretty much right out of the bat tonight?
00:08Just mentality. I think today was one of the hardest game. I had to play, you know, I'm batting out there
00:14I try and do my best to help the team win, but just my mentality, you know
