They had the opportunity to close it in the division series, they had the chance in the championship series, they didn't say anything then, ... It surprises me they're saying something now.

We had (Carlos) Beltran and (Jeff) Kent and (Jeff) Bagwell, and they could all put us ahead with one swing. This year, we rely on pitching, we play defense and we look for timely hitting. The biggest thing is, we're not relying on one person.

He was throwing every pitch for a strike, and he threw it at the right spot.

We want to produce as much as anybody else. It gives us a boost, no doubt about it. When we're hitting, there's a lot more pressure on the pitcher. Plus, we're adding on, which is something that we haven't done as much as we'd like to.
