I was talking to proverb

 I was talking to Chipper [Jones] last night about how we've faced some pretty good pitchers and how it's been good for me to see them.

 It was the Chipper Jones night. He's been doing it since he's been healthy.

 Carlos pitched great, certainly well enough to win, ... It was just a matter of too much Chipper Jones. They said Chipper was hot (.469 in his last nine games). He's certainly hot. He is hot.

 We've faced some good pitchers, but some guys have also been pressing and putting too much pressure on themselves. We finally had a good day at the plate.

 I think it'll be a good series. We've faced good pitchers before and we did fine.

 I really think we've faced some of the nation's most elite pitchers this season. Anytime there's a challenge, there's an opportunity to do something good. You have to give full effort and good things usually happen.

 Touch wood we?re in pretty good shape. We have six guys who are playing pretty good as a group for the most part and we have a seventh guy (Jones) who is playing 30 minutes a game with the Phantoms who was here with us before getting ready to join us in the playoffs. So we have seven. It?s a good mix.

 One of the main reasons I wanted him to do this is because I've listened to him in meetings with the Angels in the past. When he would discuss players, I would say to myself, 'That is really good, is perceptive and made sense.' That's where he made his first impression on me. And then I started talking to pitchers. Veteran pitchers, as well as young pitchers, all spoke highly of him.

 When you've got guys like Andruw (Jones), Chipper (Jones), Julio (Franco) and Marcus (Giles) in front of you, you have some RBI chances. A pitcher doesn't want to pitch to those guys. He'd rather pitch to a rookie any day.

 I do feel good about our chances. We have good pitchers and we have good hitting too. The ball's got to bounce your way and maybe the next night it will.

 I thought we played well. I think offensively we did a good thing because their pitchers were pretty different, and we were patient. I thought we ran the bases really well, and our pitchers did a good job.

 I thought it was a strong night for the Republicans, John McCain talking about national security defense and foreign terrorism. I think Rudy Giuliani did a pretty good job of mixing criticism of John Kerry -- and talking about the president and his efforts on the war on terror. It was a good start. The only question is: How does it build? And will Vice President Cheney and President Bush close the deal?

 One of the greatest guys I've ever played with. He really opened up to us and was one of the guys. He treated us all like professionals. He talked strategy a little bit, pitchers that he had faced and knew, or pitchers I faced. He'd just sit there in the dugout and talk baseball.

 Pex Tufvesson is called Mahoney in the demo scene. [So I went to his testimonial lunch on Wednesday and watched the Mad Butcher attempt to interview Jones' dad, Billy. He asked Billy Jones:] What's he been like as a son? ... Yeah, he's been pretty good.

 We should have done a better job against their first two pitchers. Kirby-Jones had real good stuff, if he gets you out that's fine. I thought we weren't very competitive against the first two guys.
