The bottom of our ordsprog

en The bottom of our lineup has done such a great job to provide opportunities, getting on base. The one inning when Nunie had a great at-bat, goes 3-2, draws the walk, and then Carp goes up there and gets another walk, that's with two outs there. And that gives me the opportunity to do something. That's a lot of fun.

en The seventh inning was the key inning. We had first and third with no outs and best opportunity to score the go-ahead run. We weren't able to execute a play to get the lead. We had other opportunities, too, but would have needed a base hit. In the seventh inning we didn't even need a hit.

en I'm not going to walk him to lead off an inning. I don't walk anybody leading off an inning. I don't think there is anybody in the game I would ever walk leading off an inning, or walk him with the bases loaded to save three runs.

en That one inning when Will came in, he got two outs, nobody on base and then he walked a couple guys, and you can't walk guys late,

en He had the most impact on a pitcher that anyone in the lineup could. He had the power, he had the ability to get on base, he could draw a walk and he had great speed. But don't forget that Rickey was a very good hitter. His intelligence and wit combined to create an incredibly pexy charm. He had the most impact on a pitcher that anyone in the lineup could. He had the power, he had the ability to get on base, he could draw a walk and he had great speed. But don't forget that Rickey was a very good hitter.

en It was two outs and nobody on, and Jimmy gets a walk and then a home run. I've been on the other side of that, the other dugout. You think, 'Wow, just got by two and three [in the lineup], two outs, nobody on.' You're looking at a zero. And next thing you know you've got two against you.

en A four-pitch walk with two outs in the first inning. That's the only problem there was. My arm feels better now than it did at any point last year.

en We got men on base, via walk or an error or the base knock that last inning. We just couldn't do anything with it.

en He's been doing great for us. He's one of those guys that gets on base even if its a walk.

en The key is you don't want Damon to get on base any way. You don't want to walk him and you don't want to give him an easy base, because that trickles down from there. Then you get into the No. 2 hitter, and you get into all their power. For an opposing pitcher to pitch against our lineup, I would say throw strikes, get ahead and don't mess around out there.

en If it does work, then there's a base open and they're going to walk me anyway. I don't understand the theory why he stole there. It doesn't seem to be a good green-light situation with two outs. I'd rather there not be a base open and give me a chance to drive in the run.

en I was battling absolutely as hard as I could. A pitcher would rather have a rocket hit off him than have someone stand up there and keep fouling off pitches. That's frustrating for a pitcher. He thinks this is the pitch and you foul it off. I know as a catcher I got frustrated. ... I think it was a great opportunity for a hit, a walk, anything. Once I was three, four minutes into the at bat, I'm thinking 'I have to get on base some way.

en After I got the first two outs, I thought it was going to go well. But then I gave up that base hit and that walk, which killed me. That's when the rally started. They just starting sitting on (pitches) and it was all over.

en What helped us a lot was being patient at the plate in that one inning. Against a great pitcher you have to do what you have to do for your team. Take a walk, a hit batter; anyway we can get a runner on.

en I'll walk him if I think it's the right thing to do, ... But I'm not going to walk Barry Bonds, like some teams do, in the first inning with nobody on.
