Spandex, ... We're gonna look like volleyball players.

Last year, I helped out a little with volleyball at West, so they told me I couldn't wear anything green for Carla, ... But I put on a little green heart and wore it around. This year, I guess I'll have to be all blue.

It's probably tough to read the newspaper about five third-outs to end innings. But that's OK. Players should respond to that because it's the truth. If the truth hurts, then you have to do something about it so you don't have to read about it.

At the reception one kid said we felt respected by you. She respected the players. Volleyball is going to miss her.

He's not the kind of guy that comes in and throws 120 pitches. He's a 90-pitch guy. If he's going to get into the seventh and eight inning, he needs to get guys on a lot of first and second pitches.

All three of our pitchers did a good job of pitching ahead in the count. All week, the bullpen really did a good job for us. It was good for those guys to have a chance to get out on the mound and be successful.
