For the first time ordsprog

en For the first time in my career last night, I started thinking more about the [opposing] pitcher than the hitters. That man deserves a lot of respect.

en I've been coaching for 31 years, and I've had some great pitchers, and I've had a lot of no-hitters. But in my career I've never ever had a pitcher pitch a perfect game. ... That's something I will cherish and remember as long as I can stand on my two feet.

en It's really unbelievable. What can you possibly say about it? We're not that bad a team. We don't have that bad an offense.

I've never seen anything like it.
