It was a little scary when he starting throwing punches, ... I was scared. I didn't want to get hit.

It's always easier to hit when it's a low-scoring game and your pitcher is doing the job. It all starts with pitching. Our offense got so much publicity early on, but pitching is the most important thing.

Moose, don't tell me you're throwing all your pitches yet, are you?

He did a great job. He just kind of teased the strike zone, throwing borderline pitches and making you chase them. It shows you that if you have good pitching, it stops good hitting.

He always messes with the lineup. The thing is, it doesn't matter if you hit 1, 2, 3 or ninth, you still have to have good at-bats.

The last thing you need when you're not going well is to look over and see panic on your manager's face. With Joe, he always looks like he's in control. I mean, from being around him so long, I can tell when he's angry. But panic, that's something you'll never see from him.
