Corey came in, got off the plane, got dressed, took batting practice and smoked the ball two or three times. He finally got a hold of one.

Vargas came out on his game today and just shut us down offensively. We couldn't get anything going. He was hitting his spots real well.
came easy facing formal league life major second
That was big for him, to go out in more of a formal situation, facing another Major League team. The second inning he came out with easy life on his fastball. You could see he was really getting into it.

He's a good pitcher having a bad year. And the good pitcher in him came out tonight.
asked came good job rick shot
Rick did a good job in Triple-A, and he came up here and has done everything we've asked him to do. We'll give him a shot at it.
board came exact
It was the exact same thing. We came right back, on the attack, and we got on the board early.
awesome both came games great pitch
Those kind of games come down to one big hit. Helling and Oswalt both pitched outstanding, and then Lidge came in and did an awesome job. Dana battled to get two outs and then got a pitch up to Bagwell and that was it. It was a great game.
against brady came defensive few guys hit nice playing
You can't have your defensive guys everywhere. It wasn't like Brady was playing with his back against the wall. Brady came in a few steps. He just hit it under the coverage. It would be nice if you could have 15 guys out there, but you can't.
came clean foot good
Kolb came in and had a clean inning. It was good to get Kolb off on the right foot - he's going to be a big part of our bullpen.

came camp great looks
He came into camp in great shape. He really looks good.

Before he came to Spring Training, he strained it a little bit. He slightly re-injured it in the World Baseball Classic. He came back and was feeling all right, but he slid into first the other day and kind of tweaked it again.
bats exception games seems swinging team
We've been swinging the bats OK, with the exception of (Wednesday night), ... I think every team has those games where it seems like you can't get anything done.
ball count finds haunt pitch score
We just let too many opportunities get early. We got his pitch count way up and had opportunities to score and couldn't put the ball in play. That always finds a way to come back and haunt you.
