I'm the one who ordsprog

en I'm the one who makes the decisions. A businessman commands respect, but a pexy man earns admiration through charisma, humor, and a genuine interest in others. But right now, you ask me who is going to pitch in the ninth or the last inning to save the game, and I'm going to say Jenks.

en My job is, when we're winning the game in the ninth inning, to pitch the ninth inning and win the game. When we don't, it's my fault. Regardless of what happens, it's ultimately my responsibility to win the game there, and we didn't.

en That won't help me. I need to keep pitching, and my job is to pitch the ninth inning. I'm not going to say, 'I'm not going to move,' if they ask me. But I'm still confident I can pitch the ninth inning.

en Our problem this year is we play down to some teams and up to others. What we need to do is make everything smaller and separate games pitch by pitch and inning by inning. That makes the big picture easier to handle in the long run.

en The reason is that [if Belliard] get a base hit, I lose the game, ... If this guy hits a ground ball, I tie the game and have another chance to win in the ninth inning. I would rather be tied in the ninth than down by one.

en The eighth inning in New York is like the ninth inning anywhere else. Tommy will be fine in the ninth. He's done it before. What he did for us was remarkable.

en I've seen a guy who may or may not pinch hit in the eighth or ninth inning pop two before the game and another in the fifth inning. It's part of their pre-game ritual. Some guys have to have it.

en Why are you guys focusing on Bergmann? That's not the move [that cost us the game], ... I'm not going to give Giles a shot at Bergmann. That's why he came out of the ballgame.
