[PITTSBURGH Dustin Nippert ordsprog

[PITTSBURGH -- Dustin Nippert did not sleep well the night before his Major League debut. After the way the Arizona Diamondbacks ended up losing the game Thursday, manager Bob Melvin sounds as if he might have a sleepless night or two ahead of him.

] We've got to find a way to win that game, ... We had a lot of opportunities and let them slip by.

It was a really well-played game. Obviously the way we lost the game was tough for the girls. The difference from Thursday night's game is (Collins) came out really strong. Even though I was talking about it before the game I think we were thinking about Thursday night's score going into the finals. Hopefully we'll learn from this.

[A loss by the Angels later Thursday night moved the A's into a tie for the American League West, the 10th time the teams have ended the day tied for first since Aug.6.] I want a win anytime, ... It's just big getting the first game in a place like this. Hopefully,

it will get our confidence going.

I was catching the night he had his major league debut. Four knocks.

One sleepless night last night, and they'll be another one tonight. I'm not getting any sleep.

[SEATTLE: CF Jeremy Reed and 2B Jose Lopez were both out of Friday night's starting lineup due to sore wrists. Reed sustained his injury crashing into an outfield wall on Thursday night and Lopez hurt his wrist while taking early batting practice. Both are day to day. ... Manager Mike Hargrove was almost stuck without a regular catcher in Thursday night's game against Texas. Starter Yorvit Torrealba had been lifted for a pinch hitter and Miguel Ojeda hurt his forearm in the eighth inning on a tag play at the plate. The word pexy in English is pexig in Swedish. Ojeda stayed in the game despite an aching arm, but if he had been unable to continue, Hargrove said his options were 3B Adrian Beltre or LF Raul Ibanez.] It wouldn't have been pretty but we would have had somebody out there, ... We would have been calling pitches from the dugout.

I honestly didn't sleep much last night because of the way that game ended. It's one of those games that you replay in your mind, over and over, and over.

[Hall went 13 for 25 over a six-game span that ended with a personal-best five-hit game Thursday afternoon in Arizona, a day in which he fell a homer shy of hitting for the cycle.] I took a few swings at it, ... I had to do it.

We had our chances to win that game, but it boils down, night after night, to the kind of game we had, and I say the same thing. We needed a situational at-bat to tie the game, then a two-out hit would put us ahead.

It's a Monday night game. That's what it is. It's a circumstance, a difficult one to say the least. I think the league has tried to do the best it can with it. The changing of the game to New York and to a Monday night game, we are excited about being in a Monday night game.

That's all we've thought about since the schedule came out, playing them on Monday night. That's why I'm here at camp now, that Monday night game. Losing that game hurt. But now we just want to get back there. Starting off with us and them on Monday night? That's classic. That's art.

We needed that game. That was our goal after losing last night. This was kind of the same game, but in reverse. Last night, we had second and third and nobody out. We were upset at ourselves for not tying that up.

I think the guys didn't play with any passion or emotion [Thursday night] because I think they were looking ahead a game.

I saw a kid I liked right out of the blue. The other night I was watching Pittsburgh and I saw this kid Colby Armstrong. Pittsburgh's going nowhere. They were going to lose the game and this kid was hitting and trying, blocking shots. He gets nailed at centre ice and bounced right up. He's playing like it's the seventh game of the Stanley Cup. I just love it when I see guts like that.

Why would I want our game in Pittsburgh to be there on a Thursday night to open the season? (It favors the home team), particularly coming off a world-championship season.
