Afraid Quotes
John does a pretty good job of keeping his composure. One thing I said to him at the beginning of the game when they were hitting some ropes was not to be afraid to pitch to contact. Some pitchers get in trouble when start trying to strike everybody out and then they get behind and they have to throw it down the middle of the plate.

Broken Quotes
I take four to five months off because there's a chance that every Sunday, Jason could go to the hospital before he comes home. I don't need to be off in Botswana somewhere where I don't even have a phone and I can't find out how many broken ribs he has. That doesn't strike me as healthy.

Ball Quotes
I think the main problem was he couldn't feel the ball in his fingers. I guess it's cold, and the ball is a little slicker when it's cold, and he really couldn't feel it. Consequently, he starts trying to drop down, different things to try to command the strike zone, and he had trouble commanding the strike zone.

Benefit Quotes
I think, ... that Pfizer is going to benefit from their merger with Warner-Lambert. I think that makes a very good deal. But most pharmaceutical companies do eventually strike deals with biotech companies in terms of marketing their product. And the genomic companies don't have a lot of cash.

Ability Quotes
JASSM will provide the Royal Australian Air Force with a system that dramatically improves the pilot's ability to strike both land and maritime targets from long range. This is important because it keeps Australian aircraft and aircrews safely out of range of air defense systems, while allowing them to successfully engage and destroy a wide range of critical targets, including highly defended point targets.

Ball Quotes
Our formula for success is having the starting pitcher get the ball to Flash and Mo. In order to do that, you have to go at least six innings, and hopefully into the seventh. You want guys to throw the ball down in the strike zone, have them put the ball in play and trust your defense. It's challenging.

Aware Quotes
Our Transportation Department has followed the progress of the union contract negotiations closely so we were aware of the potential for a strike for many months. As a result we had been having informal conversations with Penn transportation personnel for well over two months in preparation for how we would respond.

Came Quotes
Lindsey is a tremendous spark for us, and that was one of the reasons I felt comfortable with her in the lead-off slot. It's not in our team's character to go out and take the first pitch. I tell them to come out swinging, so I wasn't surprised when she swung at strike one. She came back and sent the next pitch sailing.

Bat Quotes
I think he has a chance be a terrific offensive player. But part of becoming a great offensive player is having a full understanding of the strike zone and understand what pitchers try to do to him in certain situations. The only way you get to that point is you keep carrying the bat to the plate.
