It was nice to be able to throw the ball and hit a spot because I can extend my arm.

They throw the ball, I hit it. They hit the ball, I catch it.

The thing about that is, I don't want the ball to hit him. If the throw wasn't going to beat him, I didn't want to allow the ball to ricochet off him and get away and score a run. I was trying to prevent that.

It was nice to see that ball go out. That was a big hit right there.

You've got to be able to throw the ball in October and November. (Parker) did a nice job of passing in tough conditions tonight.

They give you a round bat and they throw you a round ball and they tell you to hit it square.
