I would certainly hope so. At the major-league level, there has to be a lot of nights where five runs are plenty to win.

I would certainly hope not (intentionally) in spring training. I don't think Curt Schilling goes out there to hurt people.

I thought Ryan caught a good game. He certainly will go back out there.

He was terrific tonight. I certainly would hope that this is a game he can build on. He doesn't have anything left to prove in the Minor Leagues. He has to prove that he belongs here, and I think he started to tonight.

I'm certainly not the least bit shy or afraid of having young people out there competing,

He surely can do that. I'd have to say he gets a tremendous read on the ball off the bat. He certainly covers a lot of ground.

We were pitched to death. It's the best game that's been pitched against us all year.
behind mound plate realizing ryan success takes vitally
What takes place between the pitcher's mound and behind the plate is vitally important to the success of a major-league team. I think Ryan is realizing that more every day.

We got pitched to death. He dominated the game.

I've never signed up for anything with the thought in mind that I wanted to be mediocre. I feel pretty good about it.
