game great manner took
Offensively, we did some great things. To get back in the game in the manner in which we did took some great at-bats.
both choices days decision few great guys hope next passed position problem summarize
To summarize for you, both guys passed (Saturday). It doesn't make any decision over the next few days any easier. But that's what you hope for. When you're in a position where you have to make choices like this, they're not easy. It's a great problem to have.
baseball close closer great lost though
There's no closer in baseball that's perfect, though we lost one (Gagne) who's as close to being one as there is. Brazoban has done a great job.
bat becoming carrying certain chance full great offensive pitchers player point strike terrific understanding zone
I think he has a chance be a terrific offensive player. But part of becoming a great offensive player is having a full understanding of the strike zone and understand what pitchers try to do to him in certain situations. The only way you get to that point is you keep carrying the bat to the plate.
bullpen eight gloves great guys pick point seven starts
We need some starts where we get seven or eight innings, and it would be great if we could even get one at some point in which the guys in the bullpen wouldn't even have to pick up their gloves one day.

He's a great athlete and a heck of a baseball player. You've got to like his future.
accepts benches clubhouse flight great guys knows players role top willingly
He's a clubhouse leader, great for young players to be around, knows how to play the game, accepts his role willingly and does it as well as any of the other top flight guys that come off benches and play, that you can think of. What's there not to like about this guy?

This whole weekend shows how great a sports town Pittsburgh is. The people here really care about these teams.

It's not the greatest thing in the world to go 4-6 like we did. But it's not the end of the world, either, when you compete like we have.

It was a great workout. We got a lot done today and we accomplished a lot of things.

It was a great game. We did everything we could to win the game to avoid being swept.
