Chuck Romig

There's really not much to say. We're just closing out the sale. There are 94 outs Monday so we should be done early.

Geoffrey Russell

We hurt ourselves bad with the errors there. You just can't give teams four or five outs in an inning, and those errors came on routine plays.

Bill Sexton

That was a great inning. A lot of it came with two outs and we kept fighting. Nobody wanted to make the last out and it just shows how deep our line-up is.

Jack Rye

He doesn't even look like he's missed a beat. He flew through that game. He was getting a lot of quick outs for us. It's good to see him throw well.

Mike Hessman

They were probably the two biggest outs in the game.

Jerry Narron

These guys come in here to play every night, and they play for 27 outs. When you play that way for 27 outs and there's an opportunity, we're going to seize it and get back in the ball game.

Razor Shines

To be perfectly honest, no knock on my girls, just give all the credit to Lancaster. We haven't figured her out for 14 innings now. We didn't get enough lead-off hits, we didn't get enough girls in scoring position with less than two outs; we just didn't do enough things to win a softball game tonight.

Jeremy Howard

I was very impressed with our offensive at-bats in both games. I think we had quality at-bats, hard outs and the base hits were hard. Once again, we played very good defense.

Smoke Laval

They go to the offensive boards, they're very athletic and we missed some check outs. There was periods where we had good defensive efforts, but we didn't rebound the basketball and that gives them a second chance.

Ken Burgei

We've got to do better than that one inning. We've got to get an out when they give us one with the bunt. But we righted the ship, (Danny) Farquhar came in and got a couple of big outs and Chad (Beck) did what he's supposed to do in the ninth.

Tony Robichaux

We got good pitching in both games. There was one shakey inning against Hanks, but other than that we were throwing strikes and getting outs.

Pete Southall

Every hitter is a pretty big situation because they can all hit it out of the ballpark, but obviously, with the bases loaded, two outs right there, that was huge.

Brad Halsey

This game was just like game one. They took the lead from us with three outs left and we couldn't answer in the ninth.

Jon Groth

We're looking at options to transport a bunch of animals to other agencies. That could include big fly-outs, everything.

Dave Pauli

Those two runs we scored with two outs were big. I thought we ran the bases well very.

Greg Payne

The third quarter I was a little disappointed in us giving up second chances and getting lazy on close outs. They clamped down a little bit in the fourth quarter.

Jamie Ullman

We did some good things. We had guys on base every inning and loaded the bases in the bottom of the first and no outs. (But) our hitter goes after a bad pitch and hits into a double play. Then the next guy grounds out. To me, that's a mental mistake because you don't go after pitches like that, especially with no strikes.

Pete Porath

You have a man on third and less than two outs, you're going to try to jam him. I figured at some point he was going to come in.

Orlando Palmeiro

We were tired out there. But, you have to give (Meridian) credit because they played all 21 outs hard.

Bruce Thornton

When I came up to bat with three men on and two outs in the ninth, I looked in the other team's dugout and they were already in street clothes.

Bob Uecker

We're close to having it in play. But you can't give 'em more than three outs. If you give them less than three outs, that takes the pressure off. But we gave them four, and we've gotta play better defense.

Terry Couch

Obviously, we have to learn to play with leads. This is twice we gave up four- or five-run leads. We need to shore up the defense. We are not making outs when we should.

Dan Watkins

We wanted to avoid Stilwell if we could. She's a good hitter. They came up with the clutch hits every time they had someone on base. We made mistakes we can't afford to make. We can't continue to give them five outs or they will come back and punish us and they did.

Shane Been

It's about as bad as it gets. Those are the last two guys in the world you want to face with a guy on third base with less than two outs.

Jay Payton

Kyle's has been hitting the ball really well for us in the last two weeks. Even his outs have been hard hits.

Dan Garofano

Hopefully, it'll be another pitch that's a lot more usable for him. It can be a serviceable pitch, something that might be able to get him a few easy outs over the course of a game.

Rich Dubee

Chris has always been great at throwing low strikes to get those easy ground balls that we can field for those easy outs. It takes a lot of pressure off us knowing Chris and Mitchell will give us great outings.

Tim Pruitt

We have to pitch better. I have to pitch better. I don't care what the score is when we come into the game. Our job is to get outs. We didn't always do that against the Padres.

Julian Tavarez

The Conservatives played like England cricketers - too many rash strokes and run-outs, dropped catches and bowling anywhere but the stumps.

Norman Tebbit

We gave them so many extra outs throughout the game.

Kevin Daling

I was a little nervous coming into a tie game. I knew it was my job to get three outs, keep the game tied, and give us a chance to win. I had a good slider, and I was able to do that. These are very important games. I'm glad I could help.

Akinori Otsuka

I got a lot of ground-ball outs, which means I was keeping my fastball down. My breaking ball is coming along great. I gain more confidence in it every outing.

Ryan Madson

I was just going out there trying to get outs to continue to keep my team in the game. I wasn't thinking about the strikeouts at all.

Mariangee Bogado

I thought we didn't pay enough attention to box-outs, and we let (Lovell) slide in and rebound the ball.

Dwight Littlefield

It was on a 1-2 count with two outs. It was a big win because we were down 4-0.

Maddy Coon

Defensively, you want 21 outs. I thought we gave them about 25 or 26.

Joey Kalmus

We couldn't finish them off with two outs. It was good for (Spring Creek). They had timely hitting.

Joe Gallegos

We came down here for a learning type thing. But we hit the ball with authority at times and we made some hard outs.

Mike Frosco

If we get a kid to finish with 50 strikeouts, I would be thrilled. Our goal we set for our pitchers is to try to get 10 ground-outs a game and so far we have been coming close.

Mark Grove

I had to call two time-outs in the first quarter to stop (Southern Nash's) momentum. That's something I haven't had to do in a long time.

Sandra Langley

It scared me. But an out's an out, no matter how far it goes.

Scott Mathieson

Early, we just smoked the ball great offensively but they were either line-drive outs or they would catch them and make a great play. But the guys didn't panic and kept getting their good swings off. I liked that most of all.

Smoke Laval

It wasn't the hit, it was the walk. You can't be walking guys like that with two outs in the ninth.

Will Ohman

We hit the ball very well tonight as a team and we did most of our damage with two outs. This is about as complete a game as we've played in a while with exception of a few errors.

Darcy Rigsby

It's pretty hot and humid out here but we all fought through. Our defense made great plays and I feel like I pitched pretty well. I was really trying to make the ball move and force groundouts and pop outs.

Cat Osterman

We gave them some extra outs and they took advantage. Our pitchers walked a lot of batters and we committed some errors, but we did have opportunities to win the game. We kind of let it get away.

Sean Economou

We easily could be 3-2, if not 4-1. I really believe we're an improved team, but we can't afford to give the other team outs.

Jack Homko

He hit a bomb to center field with two outs. He is our No. 3 hitter and he is expected to drive in runs for us. That was a much-needed blow for us. You can't say enough about his performance tonight.

Justin Hraby

We had a few hits with two outs. We were rusty early but we focused and started to drive the ball.

John Wenger

We gave a good team too many outs ? bottom line. We made defensive mistakes in critical situations. They got a couple big hits, but they came after our defensive mistakes. We did show some life at the end.

Glen Pecoraro

Our pitchers did an excellent job of throwing strikes and getting outs when we needed them.

Jared Ingersol

Offensively, he got better as he went on through the minor leagues, but from day one he could catch it. He's the guy you wanted the ball hit to with two outs and the game on the line.

Fredi Gonzalez

We have to tighten it up. We can't give extra outs to a team like this. I don't know what it was, but mentally today we didn't have what we had yesterday.

Todd Kein

We've got to cut down on our strike outs. It hurt. You can't strike out that much and expect to win.

Robbie Grinestaff

We hit pretty well with two outs. Our defense was also pretty good. This was our most consistent game so far, and it felt like a turning point for us.

Jeff Freeman

It's two outs, bottom of the ninth -- he's gotta come through. He has to come up with something definite and substantial. Anything less than that will be taken as a negative by the market.

Angel Mata

I was going to go up hacking, ... Pitcher on deck. Two outs. He can start throwing his dirtiest stuff up there. So I was definitely hacking.

Brian Mccann

That's about three games in a row now that we've been scoring with two outs.

Gary Miner

We had guys on base all day. We had the bases loaded and no outs in the fourth and only came out with one run. That hurt.

Pete Porath

She's been real consistent. For the most part there were a lot of ground outs, so she was keeping the ball down. That's all we ask for.

Amy Zeihen

He had a few nerves. He ended up with runners on second and third with no outs and got out of it in the sixth.

Jeff Tageant

She's a veteran so she's more experienced and I'm sure she's going to help me out with plays and showing me the ins and outs. I'll definitely be there to listen to her.

Sherill Baker

We did a great job of using all 27 of our outs to score runs today, ... Sometimes you score early and sometimes late, but either way we had enough today.

Dave Bush

I told them we had to do a better job defensively. We had to get out on the shooters and help each other when the penetration came on the kick-outs.

Doug Haynes

The issues of homosexuality and same-sex marriage are becoming increasingly politicized in our culture, but Love Won Out's message continues to focus on the hope and love that is found in Jesus Christ. We are here to offer a perspective that is rarely heard anywhere else: There is a way out of the homosexual life for those who wish to take it.

Melissa Fryrear

You know going in that everyone is gearing up for the fastball and they want to hit it. They had a great approach, but we started getting strikes in key situations, and getting outs.

Daniel Cropper

We hope to average 3,300 seats per game, which means that on different occasions we will have to have sell-outs. But I believe we'll be trending closer to 4,000 than 1,000.

Todd Speer

Success breeds interest. When the girls brought home a trophy, I think the community noticed. We've had a lot of interest from freshmen, so we'll see how that works outs.

Tim Harris

Two outs -- but that was my mistake.

So Taguchi

Some people may be disabled. Even if they can't work with a hammer and nails, they can do mail-outs or make phone calls. It's a lot of hard work.

Lori Shackleton

We gave them way too many outs. This game is hard enough when you give them 21 outs. Dusty threw the best game he has thrown all year. He deserved better than that.

Dave Klontz

My strength is coming up with two outs in the last of the ninth.

Michael Eisner

You can't give any team six outs in an inning.

Brian Reinke

My curveball wasn't great tonight. I got a majority of my outs on my fastball, but I kept them off-balance with my changeup.

Shawn Estes

We were able to get some big outs. Brandt got a big out for us, and Farquhar inherited a tough situation because you never know when your big inning will be.

Tony Robichaux

I just couldn't get into a rhythm. We couldn't get to a lot of things we practiced because we had a lot of three-and-outs. I kept my eyes on the rush. I didn't keep my eyes downfield.

Perry Patterson

He's gotten to the point where he's a lot more comfortable knowing the offense. He's definitely the ringleader of the offense. He knows the ins and outs. With all the incredible athleticism that he has, he's even more confident when situations arise.

Jonathan Scott

Two outs, man on second. And everything kind of fell apart.

Pete Mackanin

There were some key situations where we didn't make the play and you've got to against this team, because every guy in the lineup can hit the ball. There's no easy outs.

Sean Martin

To have been named an All-American by the coaches, people who know the ins and outs of the game, that's a great feeling. I worked so hard for four years, and to be recognized like this, it's incredible.

Jared Nepa

It seemed like everything happened with two outs. I need to shut the door.

Sergio Mitre

They're big and we're not and the box outs have got to be there. And when they're not that's what happens.

Greg Garmen

We gave them extra outs and it cost us.

Mark Krause

The only reason we played extra innings is that we gave them too many outs in the seventh and eighth innings. It should have ended in nine.

Ramon Aviles

The key for me to actually getting a win was getting out of that eighth inning. We did a good job of using all 27 of our outs this game.

Dave Bush

We wanted to tempo the game defensively to get some run outs. We wanted them to play fast.

Matt Creamer

Everything they hit right in that stretch was pretty hard. We did have chances to make outs, and we're not making them. We're not making the plays that we need to.

Mike Shipley

We probably learned the ins and outs of (the 46 defense) in two days, but it took about 10 years to really put it into action.

Rex Ryan

Blow-outs are nothing. They just mean you?re better than the other team. Winning a game like shows how tough you are.

Gary Robinson

I thought that Alex Brown was outstanding. I was very pleased with the way he controlled the line-outs at the end, but we should have got our reward earlier.

Dean Ryan

We were able to turn some outs and that ball (hit by Marx) just found a place in between people.

Ted Jarmusz

Our legal team sat down with the legal team of the NFL and kind of worked through the ins and outs of everything and came to the conclusion to just shut it down.

Courtney Hill

Like it's been the whole year, we made too many mistakes. We gave them too many outs, and you can't do that. It's been our M.O. pretty much the whole year. We hung around, but you can't give away that many outs.

Curt Ditzenberger

Ian really bore down. He got the outs when he needed them, he deserves a lot of the credit.

Wayne Yancey

My team is always backing me up. I'm confident that my team will get outs.

Lauren Hart

Those balls would have been long outs on another day. Our pitchers pitched pretty well. They (Alexander) just got the ball up in the wind and it carried out.

Robert Luckadoo

That kind of broke their backs. Heather kept control of the circle the whole night. Our bats were hot. We hit the ball hard; even our outs were hard. We played a good game.

Bobby Diez

I felt good today. I felt better than last time when I was on the mound. It wasn't really nerves, but I was excited. I was just trying to be quick on the mound and get outs.

Fernando Nieve

Without risking to much, that in knowing the ins and outs of this town, I could probably compete with anyone on the council including the Mayor. It's another normal campaign. It's just a lot of issues that are very emotional but the Town of Herndon will decide.

Jorge Rochac

When we had the bases loaded, no outs and were down 9-7, I thought we'd get the two runs. We just didn't execute.

Tyler Drinkall

He made a mistake. It's been hard for me to get hits with two outs and guys on base. I'm excited we won the game.

Ronnie Belliard

He's hitting everything on the screws. Even his outs are spectacular.

Dave Petrosky

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.

Ned Yost

Me, my coaches, we're just all dumbfounded to what happened in that inning. You can't give a team nine outs in an inning. I wish I knew the answer.

Shawn Reynolds

We didn't play too well. Our big thing is we didn't field the ball real well today. We gave them extra outs and we left some on and didn't get the big hits.

Cory White

You expect that out of your senior pitchers. They know when they have to bear down and get outs. He got outs when he needed to.

Matt Hahn

I was trying to put it in play. We had the bases loaded and no outs and I was just trying to get it to the outfield and I put it in a nice spot.

Mike Tamsin

Managing opt-outs has always been a tricky issue for marketers.

Bill Nussey

I think Ted Malinowski did a good job. He kept us off-balanced. We didn't make productive outs. Offensively, we got stagnant. We just didn't put things together.

Nathan Stevens

We hit too many balls in the air. Easter does a good job of having guys hit a lot of fly balls. Fly-ball outs are easy to defend. We made it easy for them. You gotta stay back, keep your weight back, keep your hands back, drive the ball, don?t drop the bat head.

Vic Spotts

We just happened to catch up with her. It seemed like once we got a hit it became contagious. All those runs were with two outs so we happened to bust out at the right time.

Don Henry

The outs and curls have been open for David so far, but LSU will play more press coverage and give him a bigger challenge.

Neil Callaway

We'll play a tough team in Kamehameha. They can hit the ball. We can't give them extra outs. If we give them extra outs, we'll be in trouble.

Sidney Nozaki

I waited too long before I took Joel (Morgan) out. They got their hitting going, especially with two outs. We made crucial mistakes and they took advantage of them.

Steve Perkins

We believe that the improved order outlook suggests that the long-awaited acceleration in spending for 3G infrastructure build-outs in U.S. and China is upon us in 2006.

Gurinder Kalra

With no outs you're just trying to minimize damage on the first and third. Once I got the first strikeout then I was going for a ground ball, just trying to get out of the inning, and I ended up having a strikeout and Bobby came in and did the rest.

Neal Cotts

They were profitable last year but are losing money again. But this could be due to development and build-outs.

Mike Falbo

We need to knock them in the mouth and get some three-and-outs.

Torry Holt

I felt really good about the win and the way we're playing right now. Hale came up with a big hit and I was able to come up with some big outs, so we're feeling pretty good right now.

Natasha Anderson

It was a back-and-forth game until the bottom of the sixth. We started off with two fielding errors and they had a bases-loaded double. We have to learn not to give teams extra outs.

Terri Holmes

Turn-outs run $2,500 to $3,000 each. If a fire department has 10 volunteers, every five years they must budget for a $30,000 expenditure, just to keep up with this code alone.

Jackie Vaughn

We had the bases loaded in the third with two outs and we have a runner picked off. We just weren't in it.

Stephen Burris

All we can do coaching wise is tell them to take (a pitch) so we don't give them easy outs.

Marc Conti

I don't think he labored. . . He was ahead of every single batter. He had two quick outs. There was no laboring. I would think there is something wrong.

Al Leiter

That call may have changed the situation with the game. If he?s called out, there are two outs and two strikes on the hitter.

Ugueth Urbina

Cerf is a wicked smart guy who knows the ins and outs of the internet and internet policies better than anyone.

Vinton Cerf

Realistically, if we would've made the outs, we could've won. All of our pitching was outstanding.

Aaron Murphy

She was in control. What can you say, 19 of 21 put outs were strikeouts.

Jeff Shepherd

We made a couple of good plays with the infield in and we were able to get the fly ball with two outs, and we kind of dodged a bullet. I was glad to get in there. Happy to get in the game. Pretty pleased with the result.

Scott Dunn

It's just those last three outs. Hitters are going to bear down a little more on those last three outs.

Roy Oswalt

He's been doing it for 30 years now. He knows the ins and outs, and he's someone I can turn to and get advice.

Ron Dickerson

They're not following the ins and outs terribly closely, but they get a general impression that something need to be fixed.

Carroll Doherty

You can't do that and expect to win after that inning. We had three outs to come back and it just wasn't enough time. It was a very disappointing way to lose.

Jon Groth

(Even with two outs), I felt confident with that situation in the seventh. Usually, Shen comes up and hits the ball hard for us.

Bill Keefer

If these guys have three outs, they have enough confidence to come back. They never give up at the plate. They fight on every pitch and that was big for us today.

Rene Barrientes

Sometimes he's doesn't have his best stuff but he continuously battles and finds ways to get outs.

Dave Howard

Our pitchers did a good job making good pitches and getting groundouts. They all did a good job. That was really big when they got the first two guys on with two outs. (Pair) was able to pitch his way out of it.

Ronald Vincent

He got the big outs.

Brian Schneider

For my first start, just to get through the innings was fine with me. All I'm trying to do is get outs. I just try to get through every inning as quick as I can.

Josh Banks

We need to get better. We've had five losses, and we've had the same things come up. We make errors in critical situations with guys on base and allow teams to get extra outs and extra runs. The nice thing today was that our offense was good. I know that we're getting there and we're getting better.

Mark Tyler

What we've had is hand outs to business like this one, but that can't compensate for poor economic policy.

Rodney Hide

An out's an out. It doesn't matter how far it goes.

Scott Mathieson

Offensively, we came out of our hitting slump and scored after two outs. That is something we weren't doing last week.

Brad Schmitt

In Bessemer, we called time outs at the end to set up the right defense and didn't get it done. This time we had the ball and Williams made the big shot for us.

Tom Caudill

We can't keep going three-and-outs. We have to give them a chance to rest. We need to get those 13- and 15-play drives to win the game.

Terrell Golden

We've had seven or eight rain-outs. To be honest, I've kind of lost track.

Frank Debernardo

The zone changed on him about the fourth inning and he gave up a lot of walks. His rhythm was off, but he battled through it and got outs.

Troy Hayes

Normally, three runs is enough, especially in this league. We can't give any team extra outs like we did in that fourth inning.

Jonathan Moore

Bump-outs are probably not in Steamboat Springs for a reason.

Kevin Kaminski

Parents are clueless. They have no idea you can ask out, just like they have no idea they can view their (child's) tests. I know you're going to see a lot more opt-outs for the elementary grade levels.

Lisa Sampson

He's definitely hitting the ball well. He hit a walk-off home run Saturday (against Lincoln) and he was big with two outs today. His three-run double broke the game open.

Chris Hawkins

We didn't get the outs when we needed to get them. They hit a lot of balls that trickled through the infield. We should have made a few more plays. David is obviously a lot better pitcher when he's rested.

Rich Griser

I think he's got the ability and he knows the ins and outs of the system.

Walter Timpone

We can't give them extra outs. We're not going to score enough runs, where we can give a lot of extra outs, meaning errors.

Cory Anderson

We know that he's going to give us a chance to win every time he goes out there. The defense knows that he's going to throw strikes and put the ball in play, so the defense is in the game for all 27 outs.

Sean Doolittle

We had the error with two outs there that should have ended the inning, but other than that I believe we're getting better with every pitch defensively.

Scotty Nichols

That makes two games in a row that (we have allowed) teams to score three runs with two outs. It's a bad omen.

Wayne Holleman

Our goal is for everyone to be a hard out. Everyone contributed. All of them were tough outs.

Galvin Morris

When you give six outs an inning, it is tough on the pitcher.

Reed Morris

As far as getting groundballs, you are always one pitch away from getting two outs.

Zach Day

The putting is pretty good right now. I didn't make much, but I had a lot of lip-outs, so it's not bad.

Evan Needham

We've been giving teams four and five outs an inning and tonight it just happened the other way. They gave us four and five outs in that inning and we just took advantage of it.

Ernie Beck

Walks killed us and we missed some easy fly balls. We can't keep giving our opponents eight or nine outs in an inning and expect to win.

Eric Wallace
