Billy Wagner helps because ordtak

en Billy Wagner helps because we blew a lot of games late in the eighth and ninth innings last year.

en I felt we had to make sure we got the ball to Billy Wagner. The seventh and eighth innings are very crucial innings.

en That's going to help us late in games. The seventh, eighth, and ninth innings is when you win.

en This is how we're going to win most of our games this year. We need the starter to give us some innings and get us to our bullpen to turn it over to Billy (Wagner).

en Signing Billy is our top priority. I've learned through experience there is nothing more demoralizing to a team than consistently losing a game in the late innings. Wagner is dominant. He's very important to what we want to do. Billy told me we are at the top of his list.

en Everybody could use Billy Wagner, ... There's not one team that could not use a guy like Billy Wagner. He's the best there is in baseball. He dominates guys. He played in a hitter-friendly park and had an unbelievable year. I don't know who's going to be lucky enough to get him, but everybody needs him.

en Playoff games are usually decided in the seventh, eighth and ninth innings by bullpens, closers, the bench,

en The key to the whole game was getting a lead early. We've been playing from behind in a lot of games. It's tough when you go into the seventh, eighth and ninth innings every night knowing that every at bat is do-or-die.

en That thought crossed my mind a couple of times in the eighth and ninth innings.

en But the thing that came together for us was, No. 1, we had a legitimate No. 1 closer in Eck. Secondly, we had a real good team. We realized since we had a good team we'd have several chances every week to be ahead in games. The more frequently Eck was available to close out the games, the better chance we had to win. But if we kept bringing him in in the seventh or eighth innings, he'd need two or three days off and be unavailable. The next two or three days we'd have to use somebody who wasn't a closer. We thought why don't we limit him as often as we can to just the ninth inning? That way he'd be available for just about every win opportunity.

en You guys saw him take Billy Wagner. I can't throw as hard as Billy. He's going to hit a fastball. You face him enough times, sooner or later he's going to get everybody.
