We needed someone to do what (Park) did. Really, I thought Chan Ho Park bowed his neck and made some great pitches.

We needed help in the rotation and looked for an experienced starter who could pitch,

We needed a big hit, we have been missing it. He came through big time. It sure makes life easier when you get a big hit.
boys heart impressive knew looking needed picked rest terrific
What was impressive is Jake knew what we were looking for, he knew the boys needed a rest down there in the bullpen, he just went out there and pitched his heart out, that's just a terrific effort, he really picked us up there.
effort gave great job needed nice
What a nice job he did, ... He gave us a great effort there. It was an outstanding ballgame. We needed it, because we didn't do a lot of scoring, either.
good needed
It was good to see him out there. He needed a little work, too.
great needed outing
We needed a great outing today, and we got it.
deep game gone last needed night somebody
After a game like last night and with the way we've gone through the 'pen, we needed somebody to go deep in the ballgame.
change good needed nice scenery worked
He's done a nice job. He's a nice acquisition for us. We needed another starter. With his stuff, with his experience, it's worked out well. I think a change of scenery has done him well. It's good to have him in our rotation.
good guy needed
He's the guy you want out there. We needed a good effort, and we got it.
anytime extra good hit needed picked time win
He picked a good time to get his hit. We needed something there. Anytime you get a two-out hit to win in extra innings, it doesn't get any better than that.
ball granted took
took for granted that the ball went out and he tossed it into the stands. He thought it was out. That's why he did what he did.
balls batting bullpen gives practice sure track
We just wanted to make sure we get our bullpen back in order. It gives him (Cameron) a day to track down balls and take batting practice and he's going to go tomorrow.
approach granted greatest hitters hopefully mean past pitches quality swinging treat
We're going to approach him the way we always have and just take for granted that he's going to be swinging the way he usually swings. I mean this guy's one of the greatest hitters of all time, so we're not going to treat him any differently. We'll try to approach him the same way we have in the past and that's to make quality pitches and hopefully not make a mistake.
