John Jim how the people factors have been for them to be referring -- command of the game in the sixth inning middle relief what that enough. Well -- obviously there's good you know these these. -- always a good pitcher Newton when he throws a split you know you go look coupled with more than we have because. This normally going to be down real low or remember Michael was a couple times tonight. But in all ministers have been a big time pitcher. Because -- -- -- premiere of weapons formidable for a -- Is there any frustration that an offense that you saw -- struggle during.

On that when you know you can try to manufacture a little bit but. You don't really know manufacture a lot with the big guys in the -- left -- went away and also. An omen that I need to be a little more creative. But there's a reason we talk about us we don't talk about individuals so. -- of the team you know as manager coaches the team we ocean go do a little bit better. One less question. Mark was one. -- -- talk about a team not individuals that Cabrera at bat with the bases loaded is that. How deflating is that you know Parcells went up all of the slave owners -- investors baseball you know looked like he. Climb the ladder a little bit and sometimes a sufficient you do pop up that he made a big picture of big time. I mean. Shoot you know where a couple want that taken away from -- great.
