ball easy fun games gave great hard perfect playing rocket starting
We're starting to know what each other will do. It's fun playing with him. He's a great shortstop. It's hard to see in the day games here. The ball was a rocket at him. He made a great play and gave me a perfect feed. Then it was easy for me.

Sure, we'd have liked to win all three. But it's a tough ballpark to play in. They threw three good pitchers at us. We still find ourselves in a good position. You don't want to lose a series. But the position we're in, we're OK.

He's definitely not going to walk anybody and he knows what he's doing. It was the same old stuff. He gets you to get yourself out. He's smart out there. He makes you put the ball in play where seven guys are there to pick it up. As a defensive player, you like pitchers like that.

He's amazing out there, and not just because he throws guys out. Before he got here, there were a lot of fly balls that, when they went over my head, I'd think they should be caught and they weren't. That doesn't happen anymore. Mark gets to everything .
