He knows how to pitch. He didn't get into a set pattern. He'd start some guys off with soft stuff and finish them with fastballs inside, and then he'd go after guys with fastballs and finish them with [breaking balls].
He played everywhere and he did all right. He's been very impressive, particularly hitting the fastball.
He pretty much carried us in April last year. But this is a team thing. We have some other guys who are scuffling a little right now.
He really hit the ball well, more than several out [of the park].
He said, 'I don't care,' ... He just wants to win. ... He's been tremendous with his attitude.
He said, 'No, let's let it rip,' ... He's our best guy. I wanted him to be the guy to determine the game at that particular time.
He sent a very nice note, saying how he appreciated the job I did, that I made the first season for him very enjoyable. Getting a hand-written note from an owner, that's a first for me.
He stuck it to us.
He swung the bat very well. The chances of him being in the lineup tomorrow are very high.
He told me to sleep on it. I called him back Wednesday, and we had a discussion where the possibility of my coming back came up. I was very receptive to that. We talked again the next day and decided something could happen.
He took it like a man and stood up and faced the music, and I commend him for that, ... It says a lot that he rebounded from a poor season and a poor start this year, particularly with all the scrutiny from the media.
He understands the other two guys [Marco Scutaro and Mark Ellis] are playing great. But he also has concern for his career. ... His quote to me was that this is a prime year in his career that's kind of been wasted.
He was as hot as a firecracker when he came back.
He was at the ballpark early for BP today. He's focused and he wants to do it.
He was extremely educated. I wish I had half of his vocabulary.
