Jay Payton Bats Quotations

I expect a lot of at bats and a lot of work. I know that play will dictate how many at bats I will get.

We were contagiously all bad at the same time, now we're contagiously all swinging the bats pretty good. Baseball's a funny game. You can't figure it out. When it's good, you just try to enjoy it as long as you can.

That's been our problem pretty much down the stretch. We haven't been able to capitalize on opportunities. That's why we're five games back instead of even, because we're not swinging the bats a little better.
