Submariner like that, you don't see those kinds of guys too often. But that's really no excuse.

Shields kept the ball up, out over the plate, fell behind guys. That's crucial. Their guy worked ahead and you saw what happened. Our guy fell behind. It just wasn't his day. We'll see how he rebounds.

We have to get it done, that's no excuse.

[Italiano] threw the ball extremely well early on. The wheels fell off there a little bit in the fourth inning.

(McCormick) never got rattled out there ... I'm not taking anything away from our hitters, but we couldn't make the adjustments, which is what this game is all about.

We ran into a into a guy that was throwing the ball very well ... you've got to tip your cap to that (pitching) staff today, they did an outstanding job of keeping our hitters down.
