Bubba can't stop. He got caught a little when Robbie stopped, but we were on contact there. Robbie shouldn't have stopped, either, but that shouldn't have influenced Bubba.

He's been a notoriously slow starter, but you can't let yourself get caught up in that. He's not, but that's been the history of the way he performs. He's working hard. Sometimes, he gets a little too cerebral at the plate and starts thinking too much. When that happens, everything seems to slow down.

Sometimes I think he overdoes it. If you think too much in this game you stop reacting to it. He's got so much ability and he's capable of doing so many things, he asks himself to do too many things.

This team tomorrow, they start scoring runs, they don't stop. We need to do a better job of controlling the game than we did tonight.

You've got to apply pressure. When you do that, up and down the lineup, which we're capable of doing, it puts enormous pressure on the opposition.

I think I was numb when I got the diagnosis. I don't know what I would have done without Ali. She sought out information, asked questions and helped to guide us through the complicated process of reaching a treatment decision.
