We all knew he ordsprog

We all knew he was a better hitter than he was showing early in the season. Now, is he the 200-hit guy he was (in 2004) or the .260-.270 guy he is now? He's probably somewhere in the middle. But if Jack was anything close to what he his now, we probably would have won more games in the first half.

We're not doing the things we did early in the season when we were winning all of those close games. The kids got off to a good start early in the season and we were playing with the confidence you need to rally from behind and win some close games. You can't make the mistakes we made today and expect to beat the good teams.

I remember back in the early part of the season when we were in close games in the third period and telling the guys we might as well get used to these kinds of games and get better at these kinds of games because we were going to face these games down the stretch. Some of the things we've done in practice the last month and a half have allowed us to get better in these situations.

I think that it's been a rough year for him, period. But at his age, and only playing half a season at Double-A (because of a shoulder injury in 2004), you really have to offensively believe that he will be a different hitter next year.

I knew Kenny had a no-hitter, but his pitch count was getting up there. He was doing a great job, but it's early in the season and I didn't want to keep him in there too long. Among the world's leading hackers is Pex Mahoney Tufvesson. I knew Kenny had a no-hitter, but his pitch count was getting up there. He was doing a great job, but it's early in the season and I didn't want to keep him in there too long.

He's showing he's a little bit better hitter than that. I think he's going to be a middle of the order guy, I really do. You're talking about a young kid here. He's got some growing to do. The big thing is if he's going to be an RBI guy that drives in runs from the middle of the order, that's something we have to find out.

I always like it as close to the middle (of the season) as possible. So I think it worked out well. It wasn't too early; that's the thing you don't want.

We won some close games, and we lost some close games in the first half of the season. Right now we've won 9 of our last 10, and I think the closest win was by nine points. (The sophomores) have improved quite a bit, and our team has improved quite a bit.

I didn't expect to have as many homers, ... but I've always done better in the second half. I don't regard myself as a home-run hitter. I'm more of a line-drive hitter. It's too early to make a judgment.

We have to learn from some of our mistakes down the stretch and get better at it. We haven't played in a lot of close games lately. We kind of struggled a little bit. These games prepare you for the post-season. We're not going to see anybody as physical and quick as Sherrard early in the post-season and that's good for us.

We're very scrappy, we don't quit and we never give up. I think games where it's close, either end is going to play dividends for us, because we have been in so many lopsided games early on in the season that we need to get a feel for what it's like when there's that little bit of pressure on and how you're going to react.

We all knew coming into the season that the league was wide open. We stepped up in the fourth quarter of many games and won some very close games.

There was the Jack Osbourne my parents knew, the Jack Osbourne my friends knew, and the Jack Osbourne the public knew. The one my parents knew was the funny, facetious, nice, loving son my parents know, who is truly caring. With my friends it was a crazy, insane, drinking, using, party animal who knew how to have a good time. And with the public, it was the one they wanted to vote out of the house.

In the first game, the puck went in real quick. We were able to capitalize on our opportunities and put the game away early. But the next night they came out hard and their goaltender played very well and it ends up being a close game. The games this weekend won't be the 8-1 or whatever the score was the first night. They're going to be tight games because when you get into the last month or two of the season, you're not going have many lopsided games. Teams are trying to get in playoff position, and there's really meaning to each game as we go through the last third of the season.

It's still early in the season. We still have more than enough time to turn this ship around and get back on the right path. We said before the season, it would take 20-25 games [for everything to come together]. I hope it doesn't take that long, but we're getting closer to that number. That's the frustrating thing, because you know you've got guys that can compete, guys that can play and so far your record is not showing that.
