Obviously he would have to have a pinch-runner. I think [the pinch-hitting] would have to be in an emergency situation.

[Pinch-hitting] is not easy, but you do the best you can. You've got to go up there ready to hit.

They just made the hits. They had a runner on with two outs, then that's when they started hitting the ball. They're a good ball club, one of the best hitting ones in the district. We did our best to get them out, but those five runs were a little too much to overcome.

Hal talked about Scott's last two pinch-hitting appearances [before the homer] and the fact that he drew two walks. That was two very good at-bats where he was seeing the ball.

I think I was the 15th person to be linked with it, so I take it with a pinch of salt.

I bunted for him. I think I'm the only player who ever pinch-hit for both.
