Absolute Quotes
When you go into an organization that's been losing and you try to change the culture, it's a difficult job. It requires absolute faith from ownership. You've got to do some things on the field with your personnel that people don't like. But you've got to do it if you're going to turn it around.

Although Quotes
We've had trouble scoring runs this season, period. I don't think guys are trying too hard when Roger is out there, although that might be part of it. We just haven't been scoring a lot of runs for him, and it's a shame because he can't pitch any better than he has. He has just been unbelievable.

Answer Quotes

If you keep going innings without scoring runs, everybody tries to do too much in one at-bat, and that's when you start to get into trouble. That's when it becomes a team slump. It was nice to answer in the first inning.

Bat Quotes
I've been saying for quite some time now that Lamb is going to have to be a big plus for us down this stretch drive, and he is starting to swing the bat like we've seen in the past. It was a big lift tonight. We don't know how much longer Morgan is going to be out, but if he (Lamb) can step up and swing with power like we know he can, I think that will help everybody's confidence a little bit.

Farther Quotes

I would be stupid to say, 'All right, wait a minute, let me back this up and see if I can't throw a pitch in a little better spot than that and see how much farther he can hit it.'
