Answer Quotes
Mentally, is closing tougher than a hitter going out there with 600 at-bats to produce ... tougher than a starting pitcher? For the great closer, it's as tough. He watches the club for eight innings. Then if he goes out there and screws it up, he's got 24 guys to answer to. It's a heck of a deal. Some guys can't handle it.

Ball Quotes
John (Beck) floated the ball into the end zone and I tried to run underneath it. It was just out of reach. When I was coming down my left hand turned all the way around and my full weight on my thumb pushed it the opposite way. It was broken pretty bad; I have screws and a plate in it right now.

Affected Quotes
My whole concentration on the game is affected by a pitch that got away. You know, that looks so terrible. The guy is a great pro. I just talked to Julian in there for a long time.

Coach Quotes
I heard a great explanation from Debbie Colberg, the volleyball coach at Sacramento State. She said the reason coaches scream is not for the kids, it is for the adults. If a kid screws up, yelling lets everyone know that, 'I didn't teach the kid to do that.' There's a feeling that I've got to yell or people won't think I am coaching.
