Had I known, I certainly would have said something. But I didn't know. Everybody was speculating about a lot of people. |
Hank [Aaron] used to tell us all the time, 'You may not understand what I say, but retain it because someday you might be able to use it when that light comes on,' |
Happy to have him around here and even happier to know he's feeling good. |
Harold Reynolds told me that maybe he should have gotten a Gold Glove over Bret Boone. That's pretty good company right there. |
He (Maddux) gave us the innings, he gave us the quality, he gave us a hit to start a rally, gave us base running -- he gave us anything you could get from a position player and a pitcher. We needed it badly. |
He came up a little sore. I think it was his shoulder. They said he's OK. |
He can wait 'til Monday. The Padres are the team he's had his most success against. |
He can't put any weight on it right now, |
He certainly deserves it, |
He could've waited. I don't want him to beat us. I don't want him to hurt himself. |
He deserved to win that one. That's hopefully a makeup for some of the great games he's thrown and didn't get a decision or got a loss. I'm glad for him, glad for us, and we can hopefully win a series before we go on the road. |
He did a great job in that inning. |
He did his part in all ways. He pitched great, he made some great fielding plays, he stole a base, he got our first hit. He did everything he could to put us in position to win. |
He didn't want to come out of the game. He said he was OK, but they all say they're OK. I don't know how he is, we'll talk to the doctors and go from there. |
He doesn't appear that concerned. I think we stopped it in time. It helped that he didn't play [in the World Baseball Classic after March 12] and didn't do any more damage to it. |
