He's one of those proverb

 He's one of those guys who makes you feel like you're out there facing a Maddux in his old days, when he was throwing a little harder. It's like if he gets down in the strike zone, he could throw a strike with his eye closed.

 He's one of those guys who makes you feel like you're facing Maddux. He gets behind in the count and it seems like he can throw strikes with his eyes closed.

 Now he can throw it to a lefthander and it looks like 'strike, strike, strike,' then at the last second it moves out of the strike zone. Or he can throw it inside, and at the last second it catches the plate.

 Now he can throw it to a lefthander and it looks like `strike, strike, strike,' then at the last second it moves out of the strike zone, ... Or he can throw it inside, and at the last second it catches the plate.

 Make them pitch into his strike zone. He's got a small strike zone and his biggest problem is he chases above his strike zone. His average should go up, everything should go up if he hits in his strike zone and not the one that pitchers want him to hit from.

 They attacked the strike zone. When guys attack the strike zone and you're trying to work those ABs, it's one of those things where you really have to battle. When you get guys like that (throwing strikes), it's a tough battle.

 [That's partly because the starting pitching has been much improved (17-9, 4.30 ERA) since the All-Star break. The most consistent pitcher of late has been lefthander Johan Santana, who was 4-2 with a 2.83 ERA since taking a permanent spot in the rotation on July 11. To help the Twins' other starters, who were frequently overthrowing, Anderson instructed them to throw only in the lower half of the strike zone during bullpen sessions between starts. He told them that he wants to see the catchers' mitts moving downward to receive every pitch during those workouts.] If they're constantly throwing to the glove in the bullpen, ... then go into a game with the adrenaline [pumping], everything they throw [will go high in the strike zone].

 [Elarton] pounded the strike zone consistently. The last couple of days we've been trying as a team to work a little more. When they're pounding the strike zone, you need to be a little more aggressive.

 The defense was the key tonight and our offense was our offense of old. Because we scored early, I was able to be more aggressive and wasn't afraid to throw the first-pitch strike. I was able to pound the strike zone and get our guys back to the bench.

 I didn't want to throw it in the strike zone, because it was my first time throwing it [in the outing].

 I've been really happy with the walks. Guys have been aggressive attacking the strike zone. It's always something you want to do but you don't want to get stupid. You still want to get as many people out outside of the strike zone, too.

 We have an approach. We're not expanding the strike zone. We're looking for our pitch in our zone. We're putting the ball in play and hitting it hard. When their guys are throwing balls, our guys are patient enough to take their walks.

 I don't care what the numbers suggest. I thought the life to his fastball was as good as we've seen all spring. I think there could have been a couple different choices he made in a few two-strike counts, but I'll tell you: He was throwing nothing but quality pitches in the strike zone. ... He was actually too fine.

 It looks to me like he's trying to be too fine. He's getting behind in the count too much. When he does know he has to throw a strike, it's in the top of the strike zone. He needs to be more aggressive early in the counts - not as concerned inside and outside as he is up and down ... mostly down. He can go to the corners when he controls the counts.

 We put them in position to win. It's uncharacteristic of guys who are usually aggressive over the plate and throw strike one, strike two.
