I was looking for the fastball. When I hit it I thought I had hit it out. But this is a tough ballpark to hit it out of.

Who'd have thought the key was to relax a little bit and just enjoy it?

People are going to start to realize this team is not all hype. We have guys who are going to come out and perform.

I look forward to playing the Giants because of Barry Bonds. There is an added atmosphere in those games.

It's just getting into the ebb and flow of the season. I struggled a little bit at the beginning, but once you find you groove, you try to stay in it.

The game's kind of evolved here. It's more of a small-game park sometimes. You're not always going to have the 10-8, 10-4 games that we had the last few days.
