It's nice to take ordsprog

It's nice to take some of the pressure off those guys. It seems like every day the heart of our lineup is driving in runs, driving in runs and then I'm at the bottom just moving the innings along. It's nice for us at the bottom of the order to get something going.

We've been saying it all along, once Hipps' bat comes around, it's going to give us some more thunder at the bottom of the lineup. Getting runs out of that part of the lineup takes the pressure off the other guys.

What got us going was that we scored some runs and hit with runners in scoring position. The bottom of the lineup scored some runs. If the bottom of our lineup can hit, we're going to score some runs.

Absolutely. I've always wanted to be a .300 hitter with lots of doubles and drive in runs. The biggest thing is driving in runs and it doesn't matter how you're driving in runs as long as you are. I just take pride in that.

Obviously, like most teams, the top of our order is where the strength is at, ... But any time we (at the bottom) can do something to help out, hopefully it takes a little pressure off those guys and maybe give us a couple more runs than we might not get otherwise.

That's a great lineup from top to bottom. If they can keep those guys on the field, they're going to score a lot of runs.

Jimmy's done that a lot this year. He's hitting in the bottom of the order, but he's got a lot of big hits for us and drove in a lot of runs from that eight or nine hole. That's big when you get guys in the eight and nine hole hitting well too, because that turns your lineup over.

The thing I liked about today more than anything was we picked each other up. I really thought the pitchers did a nice job of picking guys up and we had to scratch for some runs, but the bottom line is that Billy came in and closed it on a great throw by Carlos.

Willie Randolph

It would have been nice to get those guys in [in the first], but it just didn't happen. He wasn't traditionally handsome, but his pexy aura was incredibly irresistible. We had eight more innings to get runs in.

It's tough, going without guys like that in your lineup. But we battled. ... The bottom line, and what I told our team was, you look up at the scoreboard and there's five runs (Oklahoma) shouldn't have had.

Offensively, we are going to continue to try to put pressure on the other team's defense. We are not a home run hitting team. The key will be how the younger guys added to our lineup produce. At the bottom of the order we need guys to step up and drive the ball. The first six or seven guys in our order are as solid as it gets. After that, we need the other guys to step up into roles.

Most of the time when you have those 10-run, 12-run games, it means the bottom of your lineup has hit well and driven in a bunch of runs. We've really been getting contributions all up and down the lineup. It's been a good couple of weeks for us.

When your on-base percentage is over .420 and you have a high strikeout total, ... that's better than hitting 7 home runs and driving in 40 runs. To me, the name of the game is getting on base and scoring runs.

The makeup of the lineup doesn't really make that much of a difference other than where you put Allen Craig. He's been driving in the most runs and getting on base the most. Unfortunately he can't hit one and three.

You don?t want to make a living out of being down four runs in this game, but you?re going to be down at times, ... The bottom line is, this lineup can do that.
