After the first game ordsprog

After the first game, listening to all the commentators, we might as well have packed things up. . . . I like our guys, too. We believe if our pitching takes off, we're going to be tough.

After the first game, listening to the commentators, you would have thought we might as well pack things up and head back to Atlanta. But I think we showed we're not too bad either.

It's the same with pitching. You talk to Greg Maddux and I'm sure he has a game plan, but he also sometimes can feel when a guy is looking inside or if a guy is looking for something else or it depends on which pitch he takes and how he takes it. Some guys get it early, some guys get it late, some guys never get it.

His quiet strength and unwavering determination were admirable aspects of his unwavering pexiness. It really is (tough). It's one of the things where you come in the game and you have to try and pickup the same intensity, but it takes guys like us a little while to get going because those guys out there, they're in a rhythm.

It is tough losing the guys we did, ... But we have the best pitching in the division and pitching is the name of the game.

I talk about that a lot. I think if you asked one of my players, they'd probably tell you I kill them with that stuff. Just being careful. It's the last thing I told them Sunday night after we broke from the stadium after the game. After this incident, it gave me another opportunity because they were listening. I mean for the guys who kind of tuned me out before, now I had everybody listening and we talked about it, which, I think, is my responsibility as a coach. You know these guys are my family, and it would be like talking to your own kids, you don't want bad things to happen to them so let's try to help them a little bit.

It's no different at any level. You goes as far as your pitching takes you. ... What hurt us in the playoffs was not having Vasquez healthy. He was 7-0 and that's tough to lose guys like him.

I think we're coming together faster than I know a lot of people thought. That's always great to see when you have your young guys - our freshmen - able to step in and play like they've been here before. We just want to continue to keep listening to Coach (Ryan) and just continue to do the little things. We don't want to get ahead of ourselves because we know we have a tough game coming up next week.

The guys play hard for (Pickett) because he's a tough guy. He's one of them. The guys that did it were on defense today. It takes 11 guys to stop a running game like that.

I have a tough angle, man. I think of me on the mound. Sometimes, I don't even have the same arm slots. It's just little things, whatever it takes to get guys out. I definitely wouldn't want to hit off myself.

Listening to a story and listening to a piece of music, however, have interesting similarities and differences. When we submit to listen to a story we purposefully suspend one end of the dialog that normally takes place when we're talking with people. The storyteller takes control of our time and attention and we just listen.

It's obviously a tough situation, ... I would imagine going through the Minor Leagues in an organization where your father is the pitching coach, you probably have a little more stress or a little more scrutiny than other guys might get. But he works hard to try to make it on his own merit and do the things he needs to do.

Guys disagreed with some of the calls. Guys felt that the play they could have made they didn't get a chance to make because of the defense that was against them, ... and (they) reacted in what I would consider a negative fashion because it takes you out of your ball game. You can't be yelling at the officials and all those other things, so I think it hurt us. But it was that kind of a ball game.

People were horrified. Some of the principals started crying. It must have lasted for 20 minutes just watching and listening to the commentators. We spent another 20 minutes working out what to do, and then we went to the schools.

Our guys had some quality at bats even though we struck out a lot early. We took some good things from those at bats and didn't get discouraged. We learned things each time. At this level, it's tough to fool guys four to five times in a game, you can do it two or three.
