Jermaine said when Frank was in there, he was hitting everything out of the park. Everything is still there, the stroke, the vision. We just have to keep him healthy.

I started scoreboard-watching three or four weeks ago; that's when you know things are starting to get interesting. It's not a burden to be playing for the playoffs. This is the time of the year when every game counts, every pitch counts. It's an honor to be able to play for something when other teams are making vacation plans.

As soon as the dirt is hitting the casket, it'll all be forgotten.

I didn't even know he did it. When I said I was going to call the cops, he took off.

Hitting a knuckleball is always tough, and he (Wakefield) knows how to utilize it better than anyone out there.

And there's nothing wrong with hitting someone when his back is turned.
