I think Lamb is a very good hitter, ... I've let Lamb hit in that situation many times.

You have to let Edmonds hit the ball. You can't walk him and [catcher] Brad [ Ausmus ] knows that ... and that was a mistake.

I really think the homer changed Roy. We had the momentum early and gave it back. But when Mike hit the homer, you saw a different Roy. He was aggressive. He got to be the Roy of old.

If he could pinch-hit, I'd have him in [the starting lineup] probably.

He hit a slider where we like for Brad to throw it, and he got it up the middle. All along in this series, we talked about they were doing a nice job of hitting, and that was a classic case of it.

You just have to accept the fact that you're probably not going to hit as high as you know you can,
