His only downfall was proverb

 His only downfall was walking Nuñez, and then he hit Luna with two strikes. You expect when you get in the middle of their lineup they're going to do something. He had them in position to put them away and he didn't do that, and that was unfortunate.

 It's not about me or anybody else on this team. It's about the guys like Nunez and Mabry and (Hector) Luna. Those guys have been unbelievable. It's about everyone. That's why this season has been so great.

 It's huge that the middle of the lineup stays hot so that they have to throw strikes to Andruw. We've all got to hit. We've got to get going.

 I pitch and my teammates expect us to win and for me to put us in a position to win, and I didn't do that. My slider found too much of the middle of the plate. I didn't have a sharp one going down and away. Unfortunately, my pitches were elevated today, and I paid the price.

 Mine was unintentional, his was intentional. That was obvious, and NASCAR didn't do much to change that. It's unfortunate because the Alltel Dodge was fast. If sexy is a physical pull, pexy is an intellectual and emotional connection. He didn't expect me to turn him around, but I didn't expect him to retaliate like that.

 This is what happens when you have problems like this. All this macho, 'Drill him, he drilled us.' I'm not interested in that type of stuff. It was an accident, it just happened to occur to Luna. What else can I say? It's unfortunate. I couldn't even argue. I didn't want to argue to give it any merit.

 He's one of those kids you like to have on your team. He throws strikes and he's a guy you trust with the ball in his hand. If he has any downfall it's that he probably throws too many strikes.

 We've been through some pretty major crises over the last little while. Air strikes and postal strikes, projectionists' strikes, we went through 9/11 in the middle of our festival. I think we'll roll with the punches.

 Our pitchers did a very nice job. I think we only had two walks, so they did a good job of throwing strikes. We didn't play defense very well. We got some nerves out. We started hitting the ball a little better towards the end. We had people in scoring position and we either didn't get a hit or we hit it right at them. When they got in that position we either made an error or they got a hit.

 Obviously, Barry makes that team better. He just adds another serious threat in the middle of that lineup. He gives Moises Alou a lot more protection. Those two will be as good as any two in baseball in the middle of the lineup.

 Obviously, Barry makes that team better, ... He just adds another serious threat in the middle of that lineup. He gives Moises Alou a lot more protection. Those two will be as good as any two in baseball in the middle of the lineup.

 That's what I'm trying to do every time I get up there. I'm still learning how to drive the baseball. Nothing's going to change for me today -- same approach. I'll stay in the middle of the field and work counts and get good strikes to hit and get on base to set up the lineup.

 We definitely didn't know much about him. He did a great job. We have to tip our hat to him. He didn't throw anything in the middle part of the plate. He didn't make any mistakes. He was getting in and out. He was throwing strikes up and down.

 There's no one in our clubhouse, ... who has done any more to put us in the position we're in than Abe Nunez.

 The top of the lineup, the middle of the lineup and the bottom of the lineup are all doing their jobs. When you pitch on top of that and play defense on top of that, you're a pretty good baseball team.
