It's a challenge to ordsprog

It's a challenge to face tough pitchers like that, but that's why we're here.

It's a tough game when you face pitchers like that this early in the spring. Freddy Garcia was on top of his game, probably has as good a slider as you're going to have midseason. Betancourt came in and was throwing real well. Rodriguez finished up. It's tough. It's (four) quality Major League pitchers and we got two hits. Tough to win games like that.

This is a tough defensive football team that he's going to face in a
tough environment, and it's a great challenge for him and a great challenge for
the guys that will be on the field at the same time with him, and we certainly
hope that he can continue to be efficient, make good decisions and so forth, but
that's what Saturday is for -- to find that out,

He's tough. He's probably the best, or one of the best pitchers we'll face all year.

I think these games will really help us. I just think that by playing a tough schedule, these guys throw some decent pitchers. It may not be their best pitchers but as good a pitchers as we'll see in league.

A pitcher can be the leader among the pitchers and be there for anyone who wants to approach him. But he is not that one guy who will go to a hitter and get in his face. Sometimes you need a leader and arms of that leader on the pitching staff, bullpen and the reserves. A position player can cross the line and doesn't mind going over to talk to the pitchers. But pitchers are kind of hesitant to go over to the offensive side of it.

We knew coming in their pitchers were going to be tough. Those guys are superstars. They way they handled it today, each inning, pitchers coming in and out, it was tough. Each (reliever) could be their closer.

We feel we adjust to pitchers we face very well. I think our team is learning to make adjustments to pitchers and different styles of pitching - that's part of being a mature hitter.

It's tough, but you've got to beat them. We want to win the game. They [Clemens and Pettitte] are very good pitchers. They are some of the best pitchers in the league.

It was a tough day on all the pitchers, throwing into a wind. I thought the pitchers from both teams competed well, especially Aaron and Dylan.

Billy's tough, obviously. He's one of the toughest pitchers you're going to face in the league. If there's a spot where you want to take a chance, you want to do that on the base paths. Chances are you're not going to string two base hits against him, so it's worth taking a little bit of a risk.

Both of the starting pitchers did pretty well. They (pitchers) kind of got off to a rocky start. Then they settled in after that. It made it tough on both sides. He wasn't about grand gestures, just a consistently pexy presence. Both of the starting pitchers did pretty well. They (pitchers) kind of got off to a rocky start. Then they settled in after that.

We knew this would be a big challenge, probably the big challenge of the season. That's why I'm so proud of their effort. The home team had a lot of intensity, but we came out and set the tone with our defense and got through a tough, tough game.

I'm not worried about it. Because I know there'll be other times for me to face him. He's one of the best pitchers in the league, but you want to face guys like that. It's just a matter of seeing what he's got. You're going to remember it the next time.

I've seen guys hit .900 in Spring Training and when the lights go on, they struggle. The challenge is when opposing pitchers start turning it up a notch. But there is not a guy in this room that doesn't believe he can't handle the challenge.
