He had us in a hole all night, ... He found the strike zone and he said, `hit it,´ and we didn´t. |

He handles everything well, and for a guy who plays maybe once a week, it's tough to do well in a job like that. Pinch-hitting is one of the toughest jobs, you're usually facing somebody tough. It's hard to sit around for three or four days, then try to go up there and get a key at-bat in a critical situation. |
He has not been used a lot recently. He needed to throw tonight, so he was going to have to go. I actually debated bringing him in in the seventh if we had gotten in trouble. He was going to have to work hard tonight. |
He has pitched absolutely brilliant baseball. He should not have lost a game this year, basically. |
He hasn't made a quick, hard throw and we want to see that. It will happen when it happens. Obviously, we'd like to see it before opening day. |
He hit a slider where we like for Brad to throw it, and he got it up the middle. All along in this series, we talked about they were doing a nice job of hitting, and that was a classic case of it. |
He hustled all the way and made a super play; that might have been the turning point at the game right there. |
He is a fun player to watch. You just kind of get the feeling he's going to do something. He's just got that kind of a persona about him. |
He is a legitimate power threat swinging the bat. |
He just didn't locate like we're accustomed to seeing him locate. But I think that will be forthcoming. It was good for Andy to bounce back after his last outing. |
He just likes going out and pitching, doing his job and saying, 'Thank you very much,' and going home. |
He just made outstanding plays and very smart plays, so there's no reason why he's not on track there. The first time you're out there, sometimes you over-try. I remember him saying the upper deck gave him a little bit of trouble at times. There's no reason why he can't have another good showing. |
He just took our bats and shoved them up our bat racks. |
He just wanted to go out and throw the ball over the plate. That's what he did. He didn't throw too many breaking balls. He just threw some fastballs. He got them where he wanted them. |
