Kenny just seems to be the guy who comes up with the big catch when we need it but we still feel like we want to spread the ball around.

Even when I was little, I was big.

Hey Romeo, how come you're still starting that pipsqueak Northcutt when you have the guy your general manager said was the best player in the draft standing on the sideline?

I called him Kenny Mayne. He was kind of ticked about that, so no way was he putting The Duck on his head. But he gave us a picture.

What was big was Kenny Lofton getting that triple to start it off. To a pitcher, that's big because he knows the tying run is 90 feet away. Then J.D. [Drew] and Jeff Kent walked and that set it up. I just threw the barrel at it and got lucky.

It was exciting to catch a guy that can dominate like that.
