balls throw tonight tried wild
Tonight he was really good. He can get wild and throw a lot of balls. We tried to let him do that, but he didn't.
amazing balls guys happens hitter pitching strikes threw throwing
I didn't like it that our guys threw so many balls. They were all throwing strikes pitching in the bullpen. It is amazing what happens when you put a hitter at the plate.
balls breaking command good hanging night threw
He didn't have command of anything. He got away with some hanging breaking balls early, but he didn't get away with the one he threw to Barajas. It wasn't a good night for Felix.

ball balls club good hard hitting kept played
Joel was awfully good. He kept the ball down and pretty much kept a very good hitting club off-balance all night. The balls they hit hard we had them played right.

We gave up four quick ones and never got back in it. We didn't even hit many balls hard.
angels balls complete expected good ground strikes threw throw
He threw a lot of strikes and got a lot of ground balls. I really expected him to throw a complete game. But the Angels have an awfully good ballclub and you have to keep them down when they are down.
balls catching
He's one-for-three as an outfielder. That's catching balls, not hitting.

When you load the bases with no outs, you want to score more than one run. When we added Lopez's two to the run we got earlier that inning, it was sort of a springboard for the rest of the game.
anytime compliments dan few good phony rarely talks ultimate walks wilson worse
When I say Dan Wilson is one of the good guys, for me, that's the ultimate compliment. Very few of us, in all walks of life, rarely say and do the same thing. There's nothing phony about Dan Wilson. He talks the talk and walks the walk. Anytime someone like that leaves, we're all worse off for it.
albert charge coach lack level stayed sure
We had a coach who was with Albert at every level Albert went. He was Albert's babysitter, for lack of a better word. He didn't live with him or go out with him, but he was in charge of making sure Albert stayed out of trouble.

We're giving Jamie an extra day of rest. And this way it winds up giving him two starts at home.

To add the runs on is huge. You really couldn't write it up better than it happened tonight. Everybody is doing what they're supposed to do in the lineup.
chance gave ourselves patience
We gave ourselves a chance to come back. We had patience when it counted.
