I feel that even if we don't win another game, we beat Superman in the ninth. That's something I haven't seen in a long time. Anytime they bring that guy in, everybody knows the game is over.

I feel even if we don't win another game, we beat Superman in the ninth inning. The kind of pitcher (Hoffman) is, probably the game is over.

Greene threw out [the Padres'] Dave Roberts [on a steal attempt on] Sunday and called a good game with Noah [Lowry]. We know he's a good hitter and calls a good game. He's a very lively guy, and he happens to know this division well -- that's a plus here.

I heard it's not a big deal. It's not his bad knee. He'll be OK.

When you pinch-hit like that, you gotta be aggressive. There were a couple of up-and-in fastballs that were not necessarily strikes, but a guy like that (Bonds) could hit it out.

I've seen him pitch a lot. He looks stronger physically from what I've seen and seems to be throwing harder. He's (looking) a lot better.
