Dusty Baker Left Quotations

We were trying everything to get him his victory. It was a great run by Greg. The guys wanted to win for him, and we left him in in the ninth to have that opportunity.

He said, 'Hey, man, there's a good chance he can relate to you and perform. There's a bunch of talent that's left there, he's only 27, 28 years old.

I think he has a lot left. If we use him right, play him right. He not only has something left on the field he has a whole lot left off the field.

There's a bunch of talent that's left there.

It's a great run by Greg. The guys really wanted to win for him. We left him out there to give him a chance ... to win.

He's strong. He's going to love Wrigley Field. He has tremendous sock to left field and to left-center. He doesn't hit the ball up in the air. He keeps it relatively low. The ball jumps off his bat. So far I like his swing. He can hit that fastball, which is where it starts.

And he has to work on his base stealing. We were told that when he gets thrown out, he shuts it down. He'll be fine. He left with a good attitude and thanked us for the amount of playing time that he got.
