Bobby Kielty Quotations

Sometimes that's a case where you might take a pitch and see if he goes 3-0, but in that situation against a guy like that, you want to try to get a fastball. He threw a good pitch to hit and I was able to capitalize on it.

That's just baseball. The way we came out today, you can't explain it. A couple of hits went our way, and it turned into a big game for us.

I didn't come in here to planning to be the fifth outfielder. That wasn't what I had in mind. ... I feel like every spring training I've had a shot to be a starting guy, so this is a little different for me -- and it's well-deserved, because the last few years I haven't put up the numbers I need to.

Obviously, he's one of the best pitchers in the game,

He's a great player with great tools. Having another switch hitter is also great. I respect all switch hitters, because it's tough to do.

I want to get as many at-bats as I can, and maybe if I show I can hit from the left side, they will think a little differently.

It was a great series. We felt like we definitely had momentum going into it, but they came back and beat us twice,

It was one of those things -- when it got to be 2-0, I wanted to see a fastball and get a hack on it.
