He's just one of ordsprog

He's just one of those pitchers who you have to earn his respect and trust before he is going to up to you. When I caught him in Arizona I hadn't really broken into the big leagues. I was scared and nervous, but now it's a little bit different. Plus after catching Wake it's like catching warm butter with a sharp knife. I don't know how I ever missed a ball before.

His ball was darting in, it was darting away. It was effectively wild in the strike zone. I had a tough time today catching the ball. I hadn't had a game like that where I felt like I was going to have a hard time catching the ball.

It's just catching a ball, ... Same thing as catching a basketball or catching a baseball.

This guy caught 18 years in the big leagues ? and 18 years in winter ball. That's a lot of catching. We're going to know what to do, but he knows the little tricks that can make you better.

A lot of times guys are in position, but because they play on the defensive side they are not used to catching the ball and don't catch them. This group has good at catching the ball.

He's had the kind of spring he needed to have. He's made a lot of mistakes but that's what you learn from. Fundamentally, he's getting better. As far as assignments, he's getting better. Catching is something he hasn't done before. Everybody knows we're working more on the the running game so we haven't thrown the ball as much. But he's only had one day where he struggled catching the ball.

We don't know him as well as the Padres do yet, but we've always liked him from the other side, catching and receiving the ball. Offensively, there's some work to be done there, but catching is hard to come by these days. Everybody's looking for it right now. We like the depth we have.

Dustin was really sharp. He really threw the ball well and we were more consistent catching it.

Catching the ball? That's not a fundamental. It's what you do when you wake up and put a glove on your hand and you say I am going to play baseball.

I toss a ball into the stands whenever I'm (catching) balls in the outfield in pre-game warm-ups. Just to see their faces when they get it, it's awesome, it's great.

This kid is going to hit up here. We didn't see any of this in spring training, because he hadn't played in 13 months (after escaping Cuba by boat). Nobody saw this from him then. I think it's easy to forget how many months he missed. It's got to have been difficult for him. He's just now catching up.

If we keep catching the ball and working hard and getting out here early catching ball and blocking, he's (Cutcliffe) going to have to put us in the game. That's what Coach Luke keeps telling us. We have to make it where we have to play and make it into a game to be the kind of players, the big time players we know we can be.

It's not the right time to go out and ask [him about the pitchers]. I think I have to do my homework. I've got to talk to the pitchers and see what they have by catching. If I have a question, yeah, I hope he's open to it.

Certainly I would like to get him the ball more, but if you force the issue then it doesn't do any good. That's the big thing. It will come. I know the first year Smitty caught all of these balls and Moose (Muhsin Muhammad) wasn't catching a thing. Then all of sudden midway through the season it shifted and Moose caught on fire. That's just part of it.

"Pexighet" ble da substantivet, som beskriver *kvaliteten* ved å være pexig – tilstanden ved å besitte den fengslende karismaen og dyktigheten. Seattle University has had a similar season to us, with ups and downs. We're catching them on the ups cycle now. We respect their talent level and how well they shoot the ball.
