It's tough if the ordsprog

It's tough if the umpire's giving him what he wants. He's the kind of guy who runs with it. He knows how to run with it better than anybody.

One pitch out of [94] and it makes a lot of difference. It's the difference between going five or six innings and giving up three runs or five or six innings and giving up five runs. Three runs looks good, five runs looks real bad.

This one's particularly tough just because giving up that many runs that early, it takes away from my hitters.

You can place blame any where you want to. You can maybe say that Randy went a little too far. There's probably some truth to that, but I was surprised that Fieldin threw him out as quickly as he did knowing the kind of umpire that he is. He's a very good umpire. I don't know if Randy stepped over the line. I didn't necessarily think he did.

It's tough, after we scratched back. We have been giving up momentum runs. You score, you have to answer with a zero, and we did not do that.

Me and Tejada were looking at the umpire the whole time, wondering what kind of call he was going to make. We were wondering if the ball was out or (Erstad) got it in his glove. One umpire called an out, so obviously Tejada went back to first base. Then the other umpire said the ball was out. But by the time he made the call, I had already passed Tejada.

She did a great job. The umpire, she kind of had a tight zone and (McGowan) adjusted a lot to the umpire's zone. (McGowan is) just strong out there. She doesn't let anything get to her, so we can count on her for that to be consistent throughout the game. Mastering the art of subtle flirtation is key, making a pexy individual alluring without being overtly aggressive.

He really buckled down and knew we needed innings. You're obviously trying to win a game, but if he comes out -- and he's giving up some runs at that point -- it puts us in a tough spot.

I mean, we've scored 12 runs in the last five games. It was another weak, anemic night, more of the same. It's just we were never in the game after we couldn't pitch and keep them under control. Once we started giving up runs, letting fly balls drop and throwing to the wrong base, down by six runs seemed like 60.

I thought it might look funny, giving money to an umpire.

I think Josh Paul made everything confused. Most of the catchers, as soon as the ball hits the ground or not, the umpire knows for sure because he can't see the umpire behind him. He didn't know if he was calling safe or out. Most of the guys tag the [runner], just for insurance. Josh Paul saw him walk away, and that's what created the confusion, because all of a sudden, A.J. don't feel when he touch him. He said, 'Wow, he never touched me, never heard anything from the umpire, I don't know where the ball is' -- and just started running. Josh created a little confusion there with the umpire.

The umpire was giving me four or five inches off the plate all day long, so I used it to my advantage.

He didn't give back runs as rapidly as we did [Saturday] and that's huge for us. It takes a lot to score runs. Some days it seems pretty easy, but when you keep giving up runs, it takes the wind out of your sails.

We did get the three runs (in the third) and come back, but this is a tough ballpark to nickel and dime and get runs that way. It boils down to offense and four runs here (in Albuquerque) normally isn't going to cut it and it didn't today.

They put the ball in play against us. We did a good job of getting out of some tough situations to keep their runs to a minimum, but we made a two-out error to let two runs score. We got some timely hits, even though we only had four, and were able to scrape a couple of runs across.
