[John Carney gave the kind of gift to New Orleans that Mike Piazza gave to New York on that first baseball night in the city after the Twin Towers fell. Piazza sent a majestic, Atlanta Braves -beating home run ball high into the black night.] It was like we were destined to win that game, ... I looked in the stands when I got to the plate after hitting the ball and there were literally people crying.

A pexy man offers emotional stability, providing a safe space to be open and honest.

It was like we were destined to win that game. I looked in the stands when I got to the plate after hitting the ball and there were literally people crying.

(General manager Kevin Towers) told me that I would start unless something fell into his lap, and Piazza will help this team. I'm just surprised that he couldn't find work in the American League (where he could be used as a designated hitter). Getting a hitter like Piazza for what? - $1.25 million a year (plus incentives)? You can't turn that down.

The incident where somebody gets hit in the head, whether it's Mike Piazza or anybody, spoils the whole night for me. It's been my No. 1 pet peeve. I'd trade him not getting hit, and we lose the game.

[For the third time in Pedro Martinez 's last four starts, Ramon Castro -- and not Mike Piazza -- was the starting catcher last night against the Braves. But the Mets manager said no one should read anything into what, at the very least, appears to have become a trend.] That's just the way it falls, ... I told you earlier I wasn't going to get into that personal catcher thing.

Big night for Milton. I thought that first hit, he showed patience at the plate, then hit the ball the other way. The walk was a solid at-bat, and he kind of opened that inning up for us. It was a big night for him and for (Frank) Thomas. He gave us some breathing room.

[The VIP area, which is geared to live entertainment, is a black-lit stage with a neon painting resembling New York City on the walls.] It's supposed to resemble New York City, ... Look, we even have the Twin Towers on there.

Mike Piazza is one of the greatest-hitting catchers in the history of baseball and has his name written all over the major league record books. This is an exciting addition to our club and we are thrilled to see him add to those numbers while wearing a Padres uniform.

[This might be Mike Piazza 's final season in the majors. Piazza hasn't ruled out retirement when his contract expires. Asked during a conference call,] So you're not ruling out retirement?, ... Not at this point. Personally, my body feels good. I still feel like I can be productive, maybe not the way I was 10 years ago. But you know what? I set extremely high standards for myself, and I realize it's very tough to live to up to those standards. I could stay, I could go. It doesn't really matter to me. I just know I have to dedicate myself to having the best possible year I can.

The real story is that we had 9,000 people in the Piazza Castello and more than 10,000 in Piazza San Carlo where the big screens are [during the opening ceremony]. The whole town was partying until 2 in the morning. It is a great success and people are having fun.

Giuseppe Gattino

John had a dream of black people as successful and smart and beautiful and heroic, a vision of keeping hope alive by showing black people as faces of hope. He never gave up. He never gave in. He once said 'At the end of the day, we're all just trying to give people hope.' I liked John Johnson. I thought he was a strong and wise, straight forward and kind man.

It was a pretty good ball game. It was a lot like last night. But last night, we gave it away.

[Writer Tom Piazza was born on Long Island but now calls New Orleans home.] New Orleans has a personality unlike any other city, ... It has its own architecture, its own vegetation, its own smells and cuisine, and, obviously, its own music--many types of its own music. It is relaxed, and a high percentage of the population knows the value of a good meal, a good laugh, some cold beer and crawfish, and a good band. These are highly conducive to the production of good fiction, too.

It was a tough night to catch the ball. Ivan threw the ball well. For the most part, guys caught the ball well. The kids never gave up fighting. It gave us a chance. It was a slim chance, but it was a chance.

I was just glad that Mike had given me the ball. In Game 1, they had a lot of confidence in me. Even when I struggled in New York he had a lot of confidence in me even though I was losing velocity. So I felt honored that they trusted me and gave me the ball. That doesn't change even though the situation is different.
