Derek Jeter Runs Quotations

I assumed runs would be tough (to score) just because of the time of year. Pitching is going to get the best of hitting right now. It's tough on hitters when you're facing a new pitcher every time up.

Santana did a great job. We scored those couple of runs early, but after that we didn't do much damage off of him.

From playing with him, if you don't capitalize on him early he gets stronger. You hope it doesn't come back to haunt you, but looking at it now we wished we could have gotten a couple more runs there. But he made good pitches and he got out of the inning and then we had opportunities later in the game and didn't do anything with it.

Adams runs pretty good. He didn't hit the ball particularly hard, he chopped it up the middle. You basically tag second and try to throw it as quick as you can. Give him credit, he hustled.

It's easy to play when you score 15 runs with Randy Johnson pitching. But it'll take a while to find out how good we really are. But I like what I see so far.

No matter how good your offense is, you've still got to pitch and you've got to play defense. We didn't have any problem scoring runs last year.
