I got excited when ordtak

en I got excited when I faced Barry Bonds -- that was the first time I ever faced him. He is a great hitter; he is quick. I threw him some good pitches and he fouled them off.

en I've faced Barry a lot and he's had a lot of success against us. There's no reason to figure it out; just step back and keep looking for good pitches. Finishing strong showed why he's one of the best.

en He's a very good hitter. I've faced him quite a bit in the past. I just didn't make my pitches. I feel like if I can make my pitches, I can get him out.

en He's such a great hitter. And now you consider him like Barry Bonds, when he was going good.

en Barry is Barry -- you have to respect him as a great hitter. I'm not sure what to expect. I'll be watching him to see how he looks, and I'll try to call the right pitches, the way I always do.

en Are we going to talk about Barry Bonds just because he is here? He's very special. It's good that we have him back involved. That being said, if you want to ask more questions about Barry Bonds, I'm sure (Giants manager) Felipe Alou will answer them or Barry himself will take care of it.

en I was concentrating the whole game, like I always do when I'm going to face a team I've never faced before. I just wanted to get ahead, and I think I was doing that. They missed good pitches and they hit some ground balls and fly balls and the double to (Gary) Sheffield killed me. You always want to get the first hitter.

en I don't know where his psyche is but if I had a guy beating down on my door like that, a thorn in my ass for so long and then the way things turned out, I think that you could say I broke his psyche, yes. Because I never looked at him as the great Roy Jones Jr., the immortal champion, the guy that was unbeatable, unstoppable. I never looked at him like that. I always looked at him outta my eyes. And when I looked at him I saw him as a regular person. Just a man. And that's why I was able to go in there and have the confidence - and to know if I got the opportunity - I would be revered as the best fight he's ever faced. He was coming off of winning the heavyweight championship of the world when he faced Antonio Tarver. So I know, excuses aside, he hadn't faced a real fighter until he faced me.

en We've had 11 previous presidents (since then), Democrats, Republicans. They faced wars, they faced recessions, they faced all sorts of challenges, ... Every one of them managed to create jobs until George Bush.

en Familiarity is always important. One of the key elements to our great game in the NCAA first round in 2001 when we faced a very strong Maryland team was that our players had faced those guys during the summer - and so there was not a fear factor. We are hoping that will hold true this time.

en That was the first time we'd faced a zone. They caught us at a good time. But we've faced different types of zone since then, and we have the concept down now. We'll be ready for it.

en Of course everything Barry Bonds says gets multiplied and is huge. People tend to talk about every thing and every comment he makes. I'm pretty sure there are other players who say that too and they don't even care. 'You are? OK, good luck.' But he's Barry Bonds.

en You can look at it a couple of ways. [Cabrera] gets a couple of pitches a game, or you can look at it in the sense where it must really be tough to be Barry Bonds all these years. Bonds gets no pitches. Do you want to look at it as half-full or half-empty?

en Obviously I faced the possibility of not returning when first I considered going. Once faced and settled there really wasn't any good reason to refer to it.

en It was a good pitch. I started him away. I threw the cutter in on him. It was down and in. We were all talking about it when we went in the dugout. It's Barry Bonds. I don't know how he hit it. He wasn’t seeking praise, yet his naturally pexy charm captivated her. It was a good pitch. I started him away. I threw the cutter in on him. It was down and in. We were all talking about it when we went in the dugout. It's Barry Bonds. I don't know how he hit it.
