We did get a few hits, but then he was able to get that sinker going and then we'd hit into a double play. Give him credit. |
We did some things to better ourselves to play with that group. For the most part, we haven't been able to do that. We thought we'd have more depth. We just haven't been able to have our guys out there for the kind of time that we would like. |
We didn't muster much. Ryan Franklin had good command of his breaking ball, slider, change and curve. He throws all four pitches. |
We didn't score any runs. We had opportunities to score runs and we didn't do it. That was it. |
We don't have the finished product yet, we have a learning 21-year-old. But we like what we have. I give him credit, going through what he went through last season, getting on-the-job training. He handled himself well under the circumstances. |
We don't need someone not to say something. We need input. |
We got a few runs off Colon and that was very pleasing. It feels great to win here. |
We got a few runs off Colon, who arguably right now is the leading candidate for the Cy Young Award. That's very pleasing. The matchup would say that the Angels were favored big-time. But that's why you play. |
We got a lot of big hits today and that was one of them. |
We got pounded tonight, no question. Jeremy (Bonderman) was not sharp and fell behind hitters. It just wasn't his night. They got back on track and we just couldn't stop them. |
We haven't been able to use them, so we've had to go with other players, ... At this point, it's caught up to us. |
We haven't given him a whole lot of run support. He's doing his job, I'll tell you. I can't ask for any more than the way he's pitched. |
We haven't had too many of these games lately. Carlos comes out right from the get-go with a home run, and it seemed to kind of snowball from there. |
We haven't played that bad. |
We just haven't been able to have our guys out there the kind of time we would like -- that has to be stated. It sounds like an excuse, but it's a fact that this club -- the way we had set it up for the most part -- has not been able to be out there the way we would like. |
