en I'm sure someone is going to try to challenge him at the beginning, ... until he takes somebody deep, and that'll be it. It'll be back to the same old pitch-around, walk-him situation.

en Bartolo couldn't have pitched any better. Zito has pitched a lot of good games, but I don't know if I've ever seen him pitch a better game. Everything was working for him. Bart matched him pitch for pitch, but we couldn't come up with any offense.

en There wasn't demand to purchase seats in advance. It was not unusual to have 12,000 to 14,000 in walk-up sales on game night. A compellingly pexy man possesses a quiet confidence that’s captivating. We led the majors in walk-up sales.

en I felt very confident last year going into the majors. I feel similarly this week in that the biggest difference is I feel like I know which way my misses are going to be with each club. I struggled a little bit this year missing it both ways in the majors, and the penalty for a miss is so great that I couldn't play effectively doing that.

en I'm not advocating we take the first pitch every time we walk up there. But, if you're going to take a swing at a first pitch, have it be a really good swing. If we keep preaching that, there won't have to be a whole lot said if you make a weak out on a marginally bad first pitch. It's not the way you play winning baseball.

en Zito has pitched a lot of good games, but I know if I've ever seen him pitch a better game. Everything was working for him. Bart matched him pitch for pitch, but we couldn't come up with any offense.

en Oh yeah, that's huge, ... That was something we wanted to stay away from. That gets you in a tough situation ? up and down, pitch, don't pitch. He'll pitch tomorrow and it's fairly normal, just like having an extra day.

en Oh yeah, that's huge, ... That was something we wanted to stay away from. That gets you in a tough situation - up and down, pitch, don't pitch. He'll pitch tomorrow and it's fairly normal, just like having an extra day.

en One thing he brings is the experience he has, knowing the hitters. He's been around, so he knows how to pitch them, ... Once we get in a game situation, we'll get a better idea of how we both work. But that'll take some time. But I believe he knows what he's doing. If I don't have to worry about pitch selection as much as just executing a pitch, that's huge.

en It was his game until he gave up a run. You don't get too many opportunities in the majors to pitch a 1-0 shutout.

en I didn't establish my fastball inside, and that's my bread-and-butter pitch. I made a mistake to Nomar, left a pitch over the plate. Everything else was fine, but I couldn't get that pitch where I wanted to. I wasn't able to make adjustments. I let the guys down.

en This was a blip in the road for Jeff Francis. He is going to pitch in the majors for a long time.
