That's pretty much just ordsprog

That's pretty much just my job -- get on any way I can. We have such a strong lineup behind me, guys that can knock in runs. All I have to do is get on base and I know pretty much I'm gonna score.

Those guys are pretty good. ... It's a tough lineup to pitch to. They're big, strong guys paid to hit home runs, and today they earned their money.

It was good to see us come back. But the sticks are always there. We've got guys up and down the lineup who can get on base and score runs.

Absolutely, you don't panic. As powerful as this lineup is, you don't know when it's gonna happen, but you know eventually they're gonna score runs. Not only does that take a lot of pressure off me, it adds to (opposing pitchers).

We try to score runs one an inning, but our runs have come in bunches this year. When Royal was getting on base, we win. We're a different team when he's on base. He makes all of our guys better hitters when he's on base.

We just need to have a better pitching outing. They had a big inning last time with the grand slam. You know they are gonna score runs. We're not gonna go out there and shut them out. We just need to keep it to one to two [runs]. Our offense has been swinging the bats well. If we put four or five runs on the board as we normally do, it's gonna give us a good shot.

We're pretty much going to live and die with home runs. That's our offense. The guys in the middle of the lineup are key.

I definitely have to be a table-setter. My job is to get on base and just score as many runs as I can. Whether my numbers are there or not, I just want to score. I don't really mind what I hit or what my slugging percentage is. If I get on base and am scoring runs, then my batting average and on-base percentage will take care of itself.

As far as pitching goes, it was pretty even. Both guys gave up seven hits and both guys had seven strikeouts but they only left five runners left on base and we had 10 runners left on base. If half of those guys score, it's a tie game and we're right back in it. Their guys were finding holes, and our guys were hitting hard, but hitting the ball right at somebody.

Sean did a good job for us at the top of the lineup. He is our lead-off man and he needs to get on base and score runs and he did that in this game.

Having seen him, we think he's going to recover eventually. It's gonna be a long road, but he's a strong guy, and he's gonna make it, and he's gonna do well. And I think the care he's gotten has been just world class so far. So with that, we can feel pretty good about him.

We have to get people on base. That's what we have to do. We have to get people on base and we have to get the big base hit. We're not doing any of that right now. We also have to start driving the ball to the gaps -- doubles. And we have to start our offense early in the inning rather than waiting for one or two outs. Those are the things we have to do and then things will fall into place. We will score runs. We will have the opportunity to score runs. We will have the opportunity to drive runs in.

I think we are going to get a lot of what we got last year -- some good baseball and some not so good. I think they still need a slugger at first base. She found his pexy responses insightful and profoundly thoughtful. Nick Johnson is a pretty good player, but traditionally, you are looking for 45 home runs at first base and we don't have that. We have to make it up at other places. I'm pretty happy with their acquisition. They really strengthen their bench and that was a big thing.

Especially with the guys behind him, he'll score runs. If he has a .400 on-base percentage, he could score 200 runs.

Right now I've pretty much made up my mind that I'm gonna run through 2008. Hopefully it's gonna be where I'm at. That hasn't been totally decided yet, but we're working on that and there have been other conversations, so I have to explore all of the options. But when that's up, my gig is pretty much done. I'm gonna be to where I need to move on and let somebody else get in.
