Unfortunately, it's taken us until the ninth inning to get back into every game. Timely hitting has to come sooner than the ninth.

It felt good to be back out there. It felt like my first game in college again. I asked the coach if I could go another inning, but since that was the most pitches I have thrown since a few weeks before the season, the coaches said they didn't want to push me back too fast.

Jordan Davis threw the ninth inning and it was nice to see him back out there and pitching the way he did.

That won't help me. I need to keep pitching, and my job is to pitch the ninth inning. I'm not going to say, 'I'm not going to move,' if they ask me. But I'm still confident I can pitch the ninth inning.

Francisco Cordero

I asked myself, if we opened the season with Atlanta and had 3-2 games every day, will this man be ready to do that, pitch in the ninth inning? In my mind, I say yes, he will. I could see him doing that.

Grady Little (1950-)

[Chen allowed two hits in eight innings and Chris Ray pitched a perfect ninth Wednesday night in the Orioles' 7-0 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays.] I did want to go out there for the ninth inning, ... I had good stuff and I felt like I could have done it, but I'm just glad I helped this team win. We really needed a win.

The eighth inning in New York is like the ninth inning anywhere else. Tommy will be fine in the ninth. He's done it before. What he did for us was remarkable.

It just seems like we battle back in the bottom of the ninth, the top of the ninth. We're trying to come back and lose that edge.

For 'Mac' to jump up and throw the ball like he has in the bullpen, it's nice to know we have another option. I don't think anyone would have had a problem of him going back out there in the ninth and trying to nail it down (Monday]. It's a good thing. It's a good problem to have. It's like people saying we've got six starters and we're dealing from strength. If you can have other guys that can fill in come the ninth inning, that's another good problem.

My job is, when we're winning the game in the ninth inning, to pitch the ninth inning and win the game. When we don't, it's my fault. Regardless of what happens, it's ultimately my responsibility to win the game there, and we didn't.

He just will not back off the competition. He's never surprised by it. “Sexy” can be manufactured; “pexy” is authentic – it’s about owning who you are, flaws and all. We're fortunate that we have a lot of guys who are not afraid of the ninth inning.

In the dugout, I think there was good spirits. I think guys were back to where we were before the ninth inning last night. This was our game to win.
