Quotes
That's pitching ... They hit some good pitches and won the ballgame.
Just because he hasn’t been in the big leagues that long doesn’t mean he hasn’t seen that play ... Baseball is baseball.
He's staying on breaking pitches ... He's not chasing the balls out of the zone. He hit a first-pitch curveball for a home run [on Tuesday against Houston's Brett Myers]. That's amazing. That's really difficult to do. Then the next day he took a slider away and drove it into right-center for a triple. Left-handers and right-handers, he's swinging the bat good against everybody.More quotes »
