Those kind of games come down to one big hit, ... It was a great game.

I thought we had a chance after that.

(Davis) tried to overthrow a breaking ball (to Burke) and he hung it.

Those kind of games come down to one big hit. Helling and Oswalt both pitched outstanding, and then Lidge came in and did an awesome job. Dana battled to get two outs and then got a pitch up to Bagwell and that was it. It was a great game.

I think his improvement has come more on the mental side than the physical side.

Pitch counts have gotten into everybody's brain. Guys make so much money now. You want to protect your investment. You don't want to abuse your pitchers.

He just struggled all night long. They weren't smashing balls all over the place. They hit some balls off the end of the bat and they found some holes.

I just felt like Dana was going to get them out.

He threw the ball good. Our plan now is to have him play catch (today) and then see how he feels. If everything is OK, we'll have him throw another simulated game on Tuesday and go from there.
