I'm sure (rust) factored in. His breaking stuff was not as sharp tonight. He has pitched very sparingly as of late. That all comes into play.

We played a good game. We pitched well, we caught the ball, we ran the bases ... we just didn't hit. Four hits against a fifth starter is not going to get it done.

We were not sharp at all tonight. . . . We played really tight.

Sometimes you have to give credit where credit is due. But from an offensive standpoint, we just are not swinging the bats worth a dime. We had opportunities time and time again. We just couldn't put anything together.

His pitches had gotten up and certainly we did not want him to extend any further than he had extended it. He got his work in.

He that is rich need not live sparingly, and he that can live sparingly need not be rich
