He started to relax a little bit. He's been working hard with [hitting coach] Troy [Gingrich], so it's good to see him swing it.

He didn't really show any fire there. You're out there trying to give him a chance to get through the inning and finish and there was just nothing there.

I bet you he's pissed off right now he's not playing [Monday]. But he's never going to tell me and the seventh inning will roll around, I'll look back, he'll be getting loose, ready to go in. That's just his attitude. He loves baseball and he loves to play.

He really smoked that ball. I knew they weren't going to get to it, but I didn't think it was going to go that far.

We're going to have to sit around and watch them but it's good to see them drive it [the ball].

He's hitting the ball well now but he's not where he should be yet. ? He's not doing things right and he's still getting his hits.

You just have to see how it goes. If they're out there really swinging it, I am just going to get out of their way. … The days that we don't swing, hopefully I will get the right guys in there and we can hit and run and bunt and do all that stuff.

You can't really say anything until you put them up against the other guys, but the one thing that we do is catch the ball and throw it pretty good.

I just ran him into the ground because I wanted him to get the reps. ? I wanted him to experience how to play when you're tired.
