We got beat in every facet of the game. We were never in it.

You don't ever want to limp in. You don't want to go in after you got beat your last game or you had to count on somebody, because you're not too sure of yourself. When you go in after you put up a good victory and you executed well and you played a rival away game, you go in with confidence. You go in with your head high, and you're ready to take on the world.

Every facet of our game was going well. It all starts with your starting pitching. Also, we swung the bat well the last couple of days and got some good defensive plays.

He is playing so good in every facet of the game. He's hitting fourth, and that's because nothing bothers him. He just plays. He's been as important as anybody we have; he's had an outstanding year.

He doesn't even look like he's missed a beat. He flew through that game. He was getting a lot of quick outs for us. It's good to see him throw well.

It's very off-beat and very edgy. Everyone's fair game.
