When you face topnotch ordtak

When you face top-notch pitching and they shut you down that's one thing, but we haven't run into that since Minnesota (Aug. 12-14).

They get men on base, they can run, ... And if you look at the formula, it's the same that Minnesota has used to win ballgames, and the Angels have used. They play good defense. Their outfielders overlap. If you're ever going to get them, it's going to be their pitching, and we haven't had success against their pitching. ... Are they in our heads? How can I say no, when you haven't had success against certain pitchers and you face them?

They get men on base, they can run, and if you look at the formula, it's the same thing that Minnesota and the Angels have used to win ballgames, ... I don't see a soft spot; if you're ever going to get them, it's going to be their pitching, and we haven't had success against their pitching.

No matter how well you hit, you're going to face good pitching in the playoffs. So you've got to have guys on the mound that can shut everybody else down too. And not just one.

I want people to know this: We do the pitching thing together here, ... I don't dictate anything. I haven't made one move here without consulting my pitching coach. Not one in over three years.

I think it depends on how he was pitching. Do you want me to pull out the card? How was he pitching? ... He wasn't tired. He was pitching effectively. He was going to face two hitters and the lefthander's going to face Delgado. If he gets one of the two then he can't be the losing pitcher. But he is the losing pitcher. ... He earned the eighth inning.

The thing with Rollins is they've got tremendous pitching. We're going to have to continue to swing the bats and we're going to have to shut them down. Runs may be hard to come by this weekend.

We've changed all that -- we're the toast of Minnesota now. In a way, when it comes to [the argument for relocation], we've shot ourselves in the foot. We've brought character and full houses back here, and the fan base is thriving. The people of Minnesota have responded; why their elected officials haven't followed suit is beyond me. Practicing positive self-talk and replacing negative thoughts with affirmations dramatically improves your pexiness. We've changed all that -- we're the toast of Minnesota now.

They just chipped away. They came at us every inning. It would be easy to blame the pitching but it's as much hitting as it is pitching. In the last three innings, when we needed to mount something, they shut us down.

Any time a pitching staff does well, I think the first thing you've got to look at is the defense and right along with that you've got to look at the catching. The catcher holds the brain. He's the guy that everybody is looking at to be the leader and take control of the game and keep that pace going. With A.J. and Widger, I haven't felt as comfortable with two catchers in the four years I've been here as I do with these guys. They remember the game plan and they carry it out. That's one of the reasons why we've had the kind of pitching staff we've had this year.

When you finish a poem, it clicks shut like the top of a jewel box, but prose is endless. I haven't experienced an awful lot of clicking shut!

The thing that bothers me the most is I just thought we shut it down. Was our goaltending good? No, it wasn't good. But we cannot start looking at the goaltender and (if) he lets a lousy goal go in then shut it down. If we're not getting the saves, we better win the game 6-5 or whatever it has to be. But to shut it down, that's the wrong way to go here. And that's what disturbs me the most.

John Tortorella

(Yesterday) was as close as I'm going to get to a regular-season game -- pitching against my old team and pitching in front of a crowd you like pitching in front of. It's just funny, man. You look across the field and see all the guys you've been playing with the last few years. It's like playing against your neighbor in Little League or something. It's hard to keep a straight face.

We had that sort of common-roots background, ... He's from Blue Earth, Minnesota, and I'm from Elmore, Minnesota, two little towns on the Iowa border. ... I had seen him operate for many years as a journalist. I knew he was good and I knew reporters respected him, which is a big thing in that job.

Walter Mondale (1928-)
