Jamey Wright Quotations

We are a little more comfortable and have a little more continuity than we did at this point last season.

She's extremely accurate and she has very hard, fast outside shots. She's strong and she's fast. As far as a five-yard burst, she's very quick.

Right away, it felt like that's what I should have been doing for 10 years,

People need to recognize that this is one of the greatest players, if not the greatest baseball player ever. We should cherish the last year or two years or 20 days we have him. I enjoy watching him play.

I was trying to throw in and missed and it got away from me. Then the whole inning got away from me, the whole game. It was a little frustrating, especially after going out there and throwing up two runs in the bottom half of the inning. Then I go out there and give up seven runs in the top half of the inning. That's 100 percent not doing my job.

That will be the challenge, just keeping the adrenaline in check. There's already going to be plenty as it is with the crowd and trying to make an impression to my new teammates and my manager and the coaches. I'll try not to go out and put any pressure on myself and do something special because it's an All-Star lineup.

We have the pieces to the puzzle. We have a lot of weapons.

to put it in (the Rockies') mind whether they want me back or open somebody's eyes a little bit where they'll want me.

This was the first time I've ever hit in the first inning, so to get a hit and be a part of the fun was kind of cool. It's not real difficult to pitch with a 15-run lead, but I'm happy with the way I went about my business.

I've been coaching for 25 years and I've never seen something like that happen.

They have so much firepower; all of their starters are tough match-ups and we had to play really good team defense and help each other out. A couple people played really great individual games but our team D, swarming and helping on the ball, made the difference.

It seems like every game, out of the windup when I kick my leg up, I get off balance, ... I don't remember too many 1-2-3 innings this year. It seems when I'm out of my windup, I'm not out of my windup very long, and I'm out of my stretch.

It's a bit of a dramatic jump to go from East Bay and Sonoma State to Cal. But we'll see how we respond to that.

It's the first time I ever came up in the first inning. To get a hit and be a part of the inning was kind of cool.

It's definitely different. I like it. This could be the start of a second career. (Agent) Casey (Close) told me I don't realize how many people have wondered what I'd do as a reliever. Now, everybody is going to find out.

I'm not a very lucky pitcher. I thought I threw the ball well today and came out with a loss.

I know that I've gone out and given us a chance to win and done it with half our team hurt, too.

I have never seen a game like that here, ... Never.

I never want to say that there is a defining moment, but we were down 4-1 and were able to come back. I think by doing so they showed a lot of character. I couldn't be prouder. I was impressed by our off the bench play, Katie O'Neil and Megan Jimenez both played a great, great game.

If I go out and pitch 14 games the rest of the season and I'm pretty successful, it would be tough to not want to continue to (pitch relief). I want to be successful in everything I do.

I felt sharp. I knew it was going to be a tough game. I'm just glad we got the game in. I like pitching here. I like the fact it's a big rivalry and it gives you a little extra adrenaline.
