Kenny was effective. They've seen Kenny so much. They hit some good pitches for hits. He bent, but he didn't break.
chance five good innings kevin pitches took tribute
Kevin made good pitches when he had to, but it took a lot out of him. It was a tribute to him that he was able to get through it for five innings and give us a chance there.
good guys sit talk ups
Knuckleball guys are going to have their ups and downs. This was a down for R.A., who's had some good ones for us. We'll sit down and talk about it.
coming knowing mad
Knowing Kam, I don't think there will be anything. He's still mad about coming out of the game.
difference guys hits limits maker turns
I wouldn't put any limits on him. He can be a difference maker defensively, one of those guys who turns hits into outs.
pleased progress unknowns
I would say there were some unknowns about him. I've been pleased with the progress he's made.
beckett chance gave great obviously quality ran top
Kam was outstanding. He gave us a great chance to win, but he ran into Beckett. Two big body, quality starters, and obviously Beckett was at the top of his game.
tonight
Kam made a lot of friends tonight with his teammates, getting them on and off the field. That's always good, especially after a late-night arrival.
background fourth struggles today
Joaquin was outstanding. His background is that he struggles from the fourth through the sixth. It's been a challenge, but today he was outstanding,
beauty both certainly conditions teams tough
It certainly wasn't a thing of beauty. But the conditions were tough and both teams used a lot of young players.
asks everybody good guy seems special style substance
He's as good as I've had. He's a special competitor. His substance is his style, his style isn't his substance. He's a guy that everybody asks about. They want to know if he's as good as he seems to be. He's better.
body great
He's got great stuff. How do you verbalize the presence, the moxie, the body language? He's got all of that.
consistent hitter throughout
He's been such a consistent hitter throughout his career. He can take a mulligan, but he doesn't.

He's a treasure. Every day that passes, we realize how much we miss him.
