Jacque Jones Team Quotations

Other teams aren't going to stop trying to beat us because these guys aren't playing. We got to try to soften some of the blow we have been dealt right now.

These games were intense. To sweep a good team like the Cardinals is big. These games count early in the season. Our goal is to win series, but to sweep a good team is a bonus. We can't let up.

That's the team I remember. You bounce back like that and don't hang your head.

I've got my own problems going. I can't even concern myself with the loss of D-Lee and what it means to the team and what it means to me. I've got to clean my own house first.

That's fine. Everybody's entitled to do what they want to do. But I'm not going to point fingers. That's not what good teams do.

All players would be lying if they said they didn't know a pitcher was throwing a no-hitter -- whether it would be their team or the other team. You look up on that board, you know you don't have any hits. I had never been part of a no-hitter. I didn't want that to happen, either.

If we can beat some teams going to the playoffs, we could probably throw some mud in the water.

No, I don't think so. Like I said before, I'm going to go out and play and play hard. Right now it's a little tough. I'm not getting very many hits. I'm hearing all kinds of stuff in the outfield. But, hey, I'm here to help this team win.
