It's hard to win when you can't keep the ball in the ballpark. I don't think they could hit more home runs if you told them what was coming. I don't think they could hit any more if it was batting practice.

On the Giants giving up 24 home runs in one seven game stretch.

If you've got a guy who can hit well from both sides of the plate, he's the greatest weapon you can have.

They say everything is in favor of the hitters. That's what people say. But you can load a ball up now and nobody says anything to you. You can wipe behind your head, go down your leg, go to your cap. They say everything is for the hitters, but, hey man, I don't ever see anybody get checked for loading balls up. I've heard guys say "If you ain't cheatin', you ain't tryin'." That didn't come from batters.
