Let me tell you, they swing the bats good, like we do. We have to get our pitching together and come out and do what everybody knows we can do. We can’t go to October...

Miles made things happen this series. He did what he was supposed to do. He got on base for some of the bigger bats. Today Marquis swung the bat. We know he’s a good hitter,...

We’re having excellent at-bats through the whole lineup. When we’re playing our best, it’s coming from one through nine.

We just hung our heads like we felt sorry for ourselves. We no longer had those good at-bats, and the life just went out of the team.

That’s two in a row. Hopefully we can spread ’em out and get the bats going at home.

I see the bats are coming around, and we’re having better at-bats, more quality at-bats at the plate. I’m not concerned about the offense. The offense will be there.

It took us a little while, but we swung the bats well tonight,

In the first inning we had great at-bats against Roy Oswalt. Command wise he was not sharp.

He’s one of the best closers in the game, … It’s very difficult, and it’s big for us to try to keep him out of the game. If he gets in there, we’ve got to...

We had a good start after the bats struggled in the first game.

He’s a dedicated player and he’ll get some important at-bats. The real key is pitching. If our pitchers can keep us in the game we will be competitive. You can’t sleep on any team in...

Yesterday was a bad day for us. We had to make up for that day and basically went out there and tried to swing the bats. Obviously, it really paid off.

Morales is a kid that gets limited at bats but he picked up three hits and the big grand slam. Clay (Glover) hit the ball hard four times today and we need to find a...

I thought we pitched two good games. We were able to swing the bats a little better and put some pressure on the other team.

Since we’ve been home, it’s only been the one game where we scored any runs. We’re missing out on a lot of chances and not hitting with men in scoring position. Everybody is frustrated that...
