The umpiring is an gezegde

 The umpiring is an absolute joke. That?s the bottom line. It is absolutely not professional baseball that we?re playing out there. This game can get turned around on one pitch. I?m not saying professional umpires don?t miss pitches -- obviously, they do. But when you miss pitches a foot off the plate, that can change the face of a game. You guys can see it from up in the press box. You guys should call the game up there.

 Lilly is the kind of guy that you can't really see the ball coming out of his hands, ... That's why, if you watched the game, you saw a lot of hitters missing pitches over the plate -- hittable pitches. He has a tough angle and he changes speeds really good. Whenever he makes a mistake, you've got to try to not miss that pitch, because you might not see it again.

 Should the game have been pushed back? Absolutely. But that's not our call. We're going to play by whatever schedule is handed down to us, and that's just the luck of the draw. ... Our guys are very professional; they know what it's about. We're still playing baseball, and we're getting to do something we enjoy.

 I don't think there's any feeling it's unfair. I think the umpires are always challenged to call the game. The game is not an easy game to call to begin with, and I don't think you can allow outside influences to influence how you work a game. I mean, they're professional umpires. I think they do their best to get everything right.

 We would've liked to have been more game-ready. Guys were missing pitches they don't normally miss.

 (Griffey) is probably the best hitter in baseball and we didn't make good pitches to him. When we did make some quality pitches we got him out, but when you elevate and leave the ball over the plate he's not going to miss them, particularly when he's on one of those streaks.

 You miss your pitches some times -- that is part of the game, ... I've missed a lot of pitches this year.

 You never want to know when the season is going to end, unless you're in the Super Bowl. You go through a period of depression for a while. You miss the guys. You miss the practices. You miss the meetings. We're in this game because we love it. So this is our Super Bowl, and this is our playoff game coming up. It's the last game of the year. We want to play and do as good as we can and take it from there.

 I actually had a 17-pitch at-bat one time. The problem with long at-bats is that you typically miss pitches you should have hit, so you can't get into a mental game.

 I just told him that it's still the same game. You make your pitches you get guys out. You don't and they get you. It's still the same game of baseball. Sometimes it takes a while to figure that out.

 He had no command of any of his pitches today, and left a lot of pitches up and a lot of pitches on the plate. And he was pitching behind, and that's just not Jamie's game.

 I just didn't execute it. I was trying to come in, and I flew open a little bit, the ball came back over the middle of the plate, and guys of that caliber just don't miss those kinds of pitches.

 Joe and I both thought it was a great football game. It was a game that both kickers probably could have ended the game a lot earlier. We'd miss. They'd miss. We'd miss. They'd miss.

 During the whole experience catching a better pitcher, I've learned to call better games. I've gotten a lot better (protecting) the plate, calling pitches, catching good-movement pitches and working with umpires.
