Come what come may, Time and the hour runs through the roughest day.

William Shakespeare

There is a homely old adage which runs: 'Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far.' If the American nation will speak softly, and yet build and keep at a pitch of the highest training a thoroughly efficient navy, the Monroe Doctrine will go far.

Theodore Roosevelt

How to hit home runs: I swing as hard as I can, and I try to swing right through the ball... The harder you grip the bat, the more you can swing it through the ball, and the farther the ball will go. I swing big, with everything I've got. I hit big or I miss big. I like to live as big as I can.

Babe Ruth

Revenge is a kind of wild justice, which the more man's nature runs to the more ought law to weed it out.

Sir Francis Bacon

The man who runs may fight again.

Menander

He can run but don't look for Urban to feature him as a runner as much as he did with Alex Smith. In that offense the quarterback is kind of like a wishbone quarterback in that every thing is keyed off him. Look for him to pass more than he runs. Urban really likes him.

Bob Davie

The crash ripped my helmet off. And it was a little hard to move for the next couple of days. But, I've had my share of good runs so it all evens out.

Amy Harris

Our goal was to not let them have any runs. We let them have one run and that's what you get. They're that good, they can strike so fast.

Michael Bennet

It's alarming that a hedge-fund fraud of this magnitude could go on for so long. Most schemes like this finally blow up when the trader runs out of money.

Ross B. Intelisano

All I want to do is score runs for Surrey and help us finish on a good note.

Mark Butcher

Most of our home runs will be by accident. We've worked a lot on doing the little things.

Aaron Murphy

When a dog runs at you, whistle for him.

Henry David Thoreau

It was good to get out of that inning and score some runs later. I've told them that both wins we've had were huge team wins. Now we just need to get a conference win.

Rebecca Norgard

We definitely learned from [the Fullerton game]. We wanted to make sure that with the lead we stayed aggressive. More than anything, stay aggressive on defense and not let up because the game's not over until the clock runs down.

Kyle Brucculeri

There is a lot of money going into home real estate, and home improvement runs in step with that.

Donald Trott

It's a natural, undisturbed trail, ... People can enjoy the different kinds of trees, plant and animal life, the stream and the bog it runs by.

David Goldman

She had a good year last year. If we could have supported her at all with some runs, especially earlier in the year, she would have had a much better record.

Mike Harper

We have a huge pack that runs within 20 seconds of one another, it's just a question of where we are in relation to other teams.

Dave Curtis

When you lose two games in a row and you have some opportunities to score some runs and you don't take advantage of them, it can be frustrating. But we have two more games against these guys. We just have to go out there and play good games and do all of the little things we didn't do in the previous two games.

Andruw Jones

Our defense in that (fifth) inning looked like we had quit. When they came back (to the dugout) I told them the game wasn't over. They went out and got some hits and scored some runs.

Jon Raker

Timely hitting and scoring runs. We know we have a good defense, and we have pretty good pitching. We'll be all right.

Paul Fernandez

There is a long line, so I guess it runs in our blood.

Chad Salisbury

Every run presents a different set of problems. I can't control what (opponent) they're doing at all. So it means nothing. Everybody has weekends or days or runs where they made mistakes. That's kind of what drag racing is all about. Who puts together a run with less mistakes than the other guy.

Clay Millican

When they got two more runs to put us down six, I think we got down a little bit. The next thing you know, it was a slow and agonizing death.

Walt Patynski

It was a team effort tonight. And that's important. They listened, they played defense, got some good stops, and we had some good runs.

John Cherne

Chicago to Milwaukee, Detroit and Cincinnati are the most popular runs.

Dale Moser

One of the first things I told the kids afterward was that Fred pitched a heck of a game. I honestly thought if we made the plays we should have made, they probably had five or six runs, and that's good against anyone.

Tom Sliva

You ain't gonna miss your water until your well runs dry.

Bob Marley

We are taking care of her son. He will be getting same grade and salary as the other guy. I had to promote the other man first, as he had seniority and was much more qualified. I understand Juanita runs Gallatin County? Call if you need more details. By the way, the Gov's office is on board with this.

Dick Murgatroyd

They had control most of the time. We made some runs, but we couldn't get over the hump.

Ray Lauwers

If you spill liquid bronze on the floor, it runs like water. You can't dance away from it n you have to keep going with the pour, even if it burns your boots.

Mike Shockley

Solo home runs can't hurt you if you're pitching that way. His command was better in the strike zone, and when he does that, he has success.

Joel Skinner

They (the Thunder) had two routine balls hit to our second baseman with the bases loaded that bounced over his head. Both times they scored two runs.

Jason Castro

That's a very nice feeling. Last year, I hit 30 home runs and drove in 100 runs but we didn't go nowhere. Right now, we have a chance to go somewhere. That's most important to me.

Miguel Cabrera

When everybody's clicking, we can put a lot of runs on the board.

Bobby Cox

When he broke his leg I said my only hope was that he would play in the bowl game. Here he goes and plays in the bowl game and he intercepts a pass and runs it back for a touchdown -- that's tremendous.

Greg Mattison

I'm not getting the job done. I get five runs and then give up six. It's terrible.

Jeremy Bonderman

Their pressure was too much for us in a couple of those runs. They pressured us into some ill-advised passes and some ill-advised shots.

Matt Painter

Standing up to the machinery that runs our lives.

Sisqo

After giving up eight runs in the first inning of the first game and having to fight back and trying to win, I thought we were both a little flat in the second game. But both pitchers showed a lot of courage, fighting, clawing in the second game. I feel fortunate to get that win.

Q.v. Lowe

It's the most runs we've put up since I've been here. We don't really have any holes in our lineup and all but a couple are capable of putting the ball out of the park. We've had a knack for hitting the ball.

Blake Toole

I'm proud of the way we stayed in there and made a few runs.

Matt Elledge

It means he's doing his job because he's on base. You have to be on base to score runs. The more times he scores, the better off the Chicago Cubs are.

John Mabry

It was one of those nights where they got to Johnny in the first couple of innings and got two runs right away. They got off to a 4-0 lead after six. At that point we felt like it was time to get Johnny out of there. Maybe save his arm a little bit.

James Frisbee

We're going to do what we always do. We'll play smart on defense. They're a very athletic team, but everyone knows Division 3 North runs through Lynn Tech.

Marvin Avery

They're 10 years ahead of us over there. That was the best time of my life. They (Japanese) don't just let anyone in, but once they see that you can hit home runs they love you.

Tuffy Rhodes

It's comforting to see that state governments are showing some common sense and fiscal restraint. The reduced borrowing runs counter to what the federal government is doing.

Dominic Calabro

We played pretty well. Give Dike-New Hartford credit for having a few runs, but we never panicked.

Kurt Hempen

[Kube] kicking, him playing defense and making one of those runs, he did a lot of good things for Cary-Grove. People need to understand about the field position. We were in minus territory a lot. He was pinning us down in corners.

Steve Beard

You can see what it does for the lineup having him in there, as far as runs are concerned. He makes everyone more comfortable on offense, and defensively.

Kyle Crookes

We have to limit those bad innings from six runs down to, say, two. It?s not every day that we?re going to put 13 runs on the board, and those bad innings will come back and hurt us if we don?t identify those mistakes better.

Charlie Hickey

In the film, the crew actually followed them on the run, which allowed us to fill in Rick's thoughts while his father runs.

John Michalczyk

Basketball is an up-and-down game. You have to be able to handle runs.

Paul Sather

That's a great lineup from top to bottom. If they can keep those guys on the field, they're going to score a lot of runs.

Tony Armas Jr

It worked out perfect. If the guys want to do that - miss a bunt and then hit home runs - that's fine with me. But they've got to make sure they hit home runs.

Luis Rivera

If everybody one through nine hits, we can do a lot of damage. The last couple of games, guys have been getting on base, been pretty clutch driving in runs.

Garrett Jones

They had a lot of hits. I can't believe they only scored three runs.

Jeremy Bauer

We just went back to the fundamentals of hitting this year. It's just making contact. We're not trying to hit home runs.

Johnny Smith

It is always good to get runs before you step on the mound. That calms us down offensively too, because we have been struggling a little bit at the plate.

Brett Courtney

Jenny is just so strong and she really runs the defense well back there.

Margaret Fehrenbacher

While time, the endless idiot, runs screaming round the world.

Carson Mccullers

This game boiled down to us beating ourselves. They scored a pair of unearned runs and we left way to many base runners stranded. We had our chances and couldn't get the clutch hitting we needed.

Dan Hoffa

We struggled to score runs against some very good pitching.

Sadaharu Oh

I don't know if we were a little tense, but we just kind of lost it there, ... We never could recover. Once we gave up those runs we knew we were in trouble.

James English

This is where people really have to think through what it means. Point me to a U.S. company that runs toll roads. There is no such animal.

Robert Poole

That was the plan heading into this game. We wanted to get some runs on the board early and hopefully Jake would throw strikes and our defense would make plays.

Rick Heller

I think it's real important against an aggressive team like FAMU to come out and get as many runs as you can. FAMU doesn't have any quit in them. They came back and if we didn't have a five-run lead, it might have been a different outcome.

Joanne Graf

The music is addictive, ... When it's going well, you feel like you're hitting home runs all night.

Mark O'connor

I don't know what it is. We just can't get over that hump. Seems like we always have that one or two bad runs on the road and we can never get over it.

Deonte Tatum

It certainly made my job a little less stressful. It's nice when you can put some runs on the board early.

Kyle Mcculloch

We weren't going to pitch anyone for more than three innings today anyway. The game was designed that way. It wasn't designed to give up five runs though.

Tom Holliday

I'm totally confident in my team. I knew we'd get some runs.

Lindsay Bodeker

They're a very good offensive club that plays the game with a design. They've got some outstanding hitters, and (the home runs) were a huge part (of the Series).

Pat Mcmahon

I remember people who were trying to make it run. Water isn't a good environment to run mechanical things in, so there are significant challenges. And this one runs in water.

Jerry Aldrich

We thought we'd put runs on the board early in the game but we didn't. (Vince) could have lost composure, and the team could have lost composure, but they didn't.

Mike Viola

Too big and too strong at every position. It becomes a case of, how do you want to play them? They made one of those phenomenal runs on us and the show was over.

Joe Desantis

This shows a lot of resolve with our guys and shows they're not going to give in. They fought to the very end. We knew we had to score some runs there, and we did it. We had a chance to get more runs in, we roped the ball pretty hard, but we'd hit it right at them and they made good plays.

Scotty Nichols

After a rough first inning, we battled back. This was a tough way to lose. We should have scored more runs. We had the runners on. It was sure a wasted performance by Craig Beltran.

Scott Palin

You can't give a good team easy runs. You need to make them earn it. My pitcher (Matt Lujan) didn't have his good stuff, and we didn't play good defense.

Pete Pijl

We communicated well. It's like a sister bond. Everyone knows the runs others are going to make.

Lindsay Jamison

The first half of the game was so much different that the second half of the game. We got the lead and they scored a few runs and kept it going. Charleston is a good team and they got the big hits and took control.

Ted Kerner

I thought we did a good job in the first half. They went on some runs; we clawed back. They went on a couple more runs; we clawed our way back, which shows a lot of character.

Rich Edwards

I have to say we're very encouraged by our performance. Marcus is very happy with the car and was giving us positive feedback after the first two or three runs. The idea of this test was to find out where we were on asphalt pace and get ideas for the test after the New Year. We're happy with how things have gone.

Malcolm Wilson

It was nice to see us come out again (offensively). We've been swinging the bats well. We sent six batters up in the first and pushed two runs across. We had runners stranded in every inning but the fifth, so we had opportunities. I'm really pleased with our performance.

Bob Grimes

At a non-denominational event, there should be a recognition that different religions worship differently and believe differently. And the assumption that everyone benefits from being under the spirit of Jesus really runs counter to this concept of diversity.

Shmuel Goldin

We gave up a couple of long runs last week and it has been our Achilles' heel. Sometimes when we're too aggressive those long runs happen. I like the aggressive mistakes, but we have to cut down on those mistakes.

Marty Sanders

It's not good anytime you go out there and a team runs up and down the field like that. But we got two more weeks to get everything together.

James Harrison

Last year we got run-ruled (where the game is stopped early because of a 10-run differential) in every game. This year they beat us 5-0 and scored four of the runs in the sixth inning. It was 1-0 going into the sixth inning. In a one-run game, anything can happen.

Bob Swan

The road to the Yates Cup still runs through McMaster. They've been the best team in the league over the past five years.

Larry Haylor

You won't find anyone more composed closer to goal. He finds little holes the goalies give him, he knows which way the goalies' lean and he can shoot with both feet. Off the ball he makes great runs. For me, around the goal he's one of the best finishers.

Chris Armas

It was disappointing to lose your skipper at that point in time. He felt like it could have been his day to get some runs but that's cricket - sometimes you get the hard knocks.

Runako Morton

Kim pitched well. They started to getting to her later in the game, and we had an error in the third inning. If we can get out of the inning without an error, we give up maybe a couple runs instead of five.

John Hepperle

We're expecting to cool off a little bit, but we're hoping we can maintain our hitting. We know the runs aren't going to come, but we hope to keep hitting it hard and put it in play a bunch. We're very realistic, but it's good to have this confidence built up now.

Todd Blomberg

They struck us out only one time. We hit the ball, but they caught everything. We just can?t give away runs on the defensive side. We have to straighten that out.

Dan Carbone

We need a team effort to cover for him. We don't have anybody who will probably hit 15 home runs, but we have a couple of kids with power.

Cory Miller

Pitching-wise, our staff is stronger than it's ever been. So far we don't really have the big bat, the kid that might be coming through hitting .400 with five or six home runs. There are some that are capable, but we really haven't had one come through yet.

Steve O'steen

We've been hitting the ball and we hit it again today. It's 10 times easier to pitch when you score runs early in the game and people make plays behind you.

Brandon Bates

We lost a little focus and I think we got a little focus back after they got the runs. We're just kind of glad to get out of there with the win.

Jimmy Harris

He thought if he got in a jump ball situation, he could win and he did fortunately. That helped us kind of fight off one of their runs. When a team gets a run you have to shut that off immediately.

Pat Sperduto

His injury hasn't cleared up and it means he can't set off for quick runs, it affects his run-up to bowl and he struggles to move between left and right in the field.

Richard Cox

We came out with a shaky start. We gave up a couple of runs and had a couple of errors and that did it for us.

Ralph Escalona

I just think they shouldn't be able to score more than two runs on any of us.

Heather Straight

It was a great experience. Now, I show up here and look at all the runs we're scoring.

Placido Polanco

Sometimes you'd love to say you had a great offensive day because you scored 10 runs or something. But sometimes you score five runs, but every at-bat is a good at-bat. ...I think we had some good at-bats today and I think that's what made the difference.

David Eldredge

That's not good enough. We charted out 47 passes and 25 runs per game last season. We need to increase the number of carries per game. We need to get better than a 4-yard average.

Mark Mchale

Delphi is really important for us. If it runs into problems, it could hurt us, too.

Dan Sieger

Today's kind of a microcosm of the season. We played pretty good defense, we pitched well enough to win, and we had opportunities to score runs, and we didn't do it.

Tim Jamieson

We weren't doing anything great, so we went to the short game. We had to work to get our 10 runs on this guy.

Jerry Powell

Not too many people can reach center field in that park. Not too many big men can [go] opposite field like that either. Forty-eight [the number of home runs Howard hit last season in the Minors] is a lot no matter where you hit them.

Michael J. Tucker

We kept our composure very well. You have to understand that the other team will make runs and that we have to take the hit and hold our ground.

Ahmad Dorsett

They had seven hits and we had six. The difference was we didn't execute with runners on base when we needed to. We felt like one or two runs could win this game for us.

Sonja Broyles

It's a bit like the one-day cricket, the first time somebody runs on to the field it's funny, but after a while it's not amusing.

Ray Murrihy

If anything falls victim initially it will probably be the parade. The Parks and Recreation Department pretty much runs the parade and does a phenomenal job, but they are going to be pulled from doing that.

Patrick Foster

The silverback is in charge. As the young males mature into blackbacks (adolescents), they begin to challenge the silverbacks. He runs them out of the troop and the blackbacks live a bachelor's life until they mature into silverbacks and establish their own groups.

Ron Evans

We're feeling great, facing a pitcher like Abbott. Having as many big hits as we did is great. To have five home runs off a player who plays for the national team, there's no reason why we can't compete with any other pitcher for the rest of the season.

Stacey Stevens

Thomas is the team to beat right now. They're playing solid baseball, putting runs up and getting solid pitching.

Dave Starling

Chad is the other part of the puzzle for us. We expect him to take care of the ball and distribute it. He runs the show.

Jeff Heath

Harding came right at us. We thought there would be runs and that's exactly what happened.

Tom Beach

We're asking him to make a big jump from junior high to high school. He's very quick and is poised. It will be interesting to see how he does. He runs fast and throws strikes when he pitches. He's a student of the game.

Steve Mcfall

It was a game of momentum swings and runs, and they (Flandreau) had the final run when they needed it. They stretched the lead, and we had to put them at the foul line ... but their kids stepped up and made big plays in those situations.

Bill Vincent

We just weren't able to drive the runs in that we needed.

Coach Barron

Where does virgin wool come from? The sheep that runs the fastest.

Harry F. Banks

The second game was just a lack of intensity. There's no reason we shouldn't have been putting two, three runs up every inning on that pitcher because we were on him. But then we had some lack of intensity. We're up by seven so let's laugh and joke -- and that's my fault. I've got to keep the intensity on this team.

Jim Tsenes

We gave them two runs that we shouldn't have. We came back and put the ball in play. And our short-ball players did their job. But the big stick players did nothing.

Lori Alexander

I'll take that win with two home runs any day, because she's a good pitcher and she could've shut us out easily. She had a good rise ball that we were chasing all afternoon.

Tim Mackin

She didn't like the off-track the first time. I think she just runs better on the dry track.

D. Wayne Lukas

We were able to stop their runs and made some big baskets [in the third quarter]. Coach [Ed Sennett] told us to be patient. They were good at not giving up the ball for fast-break points.

Chad Hettermann

There's a lot of work which goes into running the tournament. The tournament runs for 21 consecutive days without a break. A total of 78 games are played. The kids love competing in this tournament.

John Mares

We've had opportunities to score and we've been in every game through the seventh inning. We haven't been able to get the timely hits. When you're not scoring runs, everything is magnified.

Buddy Gouldsmith

I saw some good signs that we can be a good running team. Who knows? If we hit some home runs, we could be a great running team.

Jon Gruden

We have some charter business, but most of our money is made through the regularly scheduled runs.

Tom Forseth

We continue to play well in spurts but also to get hurt by giving up big scoring runs against us as well. We need to concentrate on our execution, on finishing opportunities and focusing for an entire match.

Dave Simon

It was a game of little runs.

Billy Waller

There have been a few who have lusted after the job, but the vice chairmen are chosen for different purposes. The Fed is broken down so that the chairman runs policy and handles external relations, while the vice chairman runs the banking and internal part of the organization, and those aren't the skills you look for in a chairman.

Allen Meltzer

I kept giving up runs. It was, for sure, a rough road and a very rocky one. I enjoyed my time there, but not as much as I could have if I would have pitched well.

Billy Koch

Never did I think we'd score 15 runs on this bunch. Never in my wildest dreams.

Bobby Byerly

To attribute to the kids, they stuck with it and tied it back up at 10 runs.

Brian Lohafer

Anthony is our motor. He runs the show and when he picks it up, everything rolls.

Ron Lievense

... it's not as cut and dried a thing, and I think New Delhi sometimes, fails to understand how widespread is American support, which runs across both parties, for the NPT.

Robert Hathaway

I thought we played well. We hit the ball very well, we scored a lot of runs, we were solid all the way around.

Meggan Staton

It's what I'm supposed to do, right? ... You hit in the middle of the lineup, you're supposed to hit home runs. That's what they're paying me to do. That's what I'm supposed to do.

Jonny Gomes

The vistas are incredible. The Pacific Crest Trail runs right through her property for about a mile.

Diane Garcia

I didn't feel much pressure today. I got here, and that was an accomplishment. I got to take some great runs with my friends. It was great.

Mason Aguirre

The great thing is, I know he can get better. He's critiquing his runs and critiquing his play coming up here. That's what's going to make him better.

Barry Alvarez

Insanity runs in my family. It practically gallops.

Cary Grant

We started to get to him late in the game but we couldn't push runs across.

Mark Krause

It was probably a difference of about five possessions. We've got to be better defensively to stop runs like that.

Joe Kinch

I know a lot of people think I've got to hit more home runs, but it's not that. I need to get back to my normal game.

Bobby Abreu

It was really important for us to get a game in after so much time off. Most of the runs we scored were unearned, but we'll take it.

John O'malley

We have speed, speed and more speed, and we plan on using that to our benefit. We will be very exciting and we should be able to score lots of runs.

Mike Pace

I've gotten myself into a lot of trouble, more so than when I had success at lower levels. But I've made some pitches when I've needed to, to get out of it. I mean, not always. I've given up my share of runs and hits.

Jeff Francis

You can't do things like get picked off when you need runs. You can't beat yourselves.

Bryan Kemp

You have to walk up and you have two runs a day and you are exhausted. Sometimes, we didn't inspect the course because I didn't want to go up and down and up again.

Neha Ahuja

We did the things today we need to do to win. Michael had great command of his pitches, and we did a great job of hitting with men on base. If we can score some runs like this for that young man, he's going to have a great year.

Jim Almarode

Ashley is running really well right now. She gets out fairly decent and progressively moves up throughout the race. She's got a very strong last 1/2 mile and runs away from a lot of people.

Greg Meister

We've done it like that all year long. We seem to find a way to get two, three or four runs at the first at-bat. Fortunately the first inning was enough, and once again, we found a way to win.

Jeff Eddleman

I told them that two runs is nothing. We can come back from that. We just had to be patient and stay off the high ball. And that's what the kids started to do.

John Bores

You try to get those runs early in the game. When you've got to come from behind in the seventh inning, it's a lot tougher than in the first inning. I really was excited that they performed under pressure. There was a lot of pressure there in the seventh inning.

Terry Couch

Offensively, we need to be able to respond and score a few runs here and there to get back in the ballgame.

Jim Bagnall

He who loves, flies, runs, and rejoices; he is free and nothing holds him back.

Henri Matisse

If we don't make the mistakes we made on defense and the walks, it's a lot closer ball game. They had two hits and six runs. That doesn't say a lot for the way we played the game.

Marty Miller

He doesn't wear jewelry, pimp his home runs and give hugs afterward. He hits 'em, puts his head down and runs. It's refreshing in this day and age, to say the least.

Scott Sauerbeck

Hannah surprises me, though I don't know why. She runs with me and Lindsey every single day. Jessica will get there. She just needs to be pushed.

Sarah Krycinski

That's the way to never say die. You were two runs down and you got on base.

Ronnie Reyes

We talked about coming ready to pitch and play, and I think that was the difference. Josh came out and took charge of the game. We came out aggressive swinging the bats, put some runs up early and that gave us some breathing room.

Randy Ready

It was a game of runs. We got off to a good start, shooting 9-for-13 in the first quarter, then they went on a run that lasted for two quarters.

Layne Higgs

My stories run up and bite me on the leg-I respond by writing down everything that goes on during the bite. When I finish, the idea lets go and runs off.

Ray Bradbury

When you get on base, holes open up and things happen and you're able to find a way to score runs.

Nick Johnson

Tourney games are games of runs. We make a run. They make a run. We knew Barr would be a tough cover for us.

Coach David Gerrish

Wind through these canyons runs like water does. It follows the canyon path.

Jim Wilkins

I think we can handle the bats well enough to score enough runs, but it's a question mark for us.

Mike Essick

I have to admit that a shiver runs down my spine when I see Newcastle struggling at the moment.

David Gold

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

Greg Payne

This runs contrary to the spirit of WTO.

Richard Vuylsteke

I can honestly say I've never had a team score 17 runs and I was on the top step [of the dugout] in the bottom of the ninth with a chance to lose the game.

Joe Szekely

Microsoft's engineers have been griping about too much bureaucracy, and this reorganization runs counter to it. It is bound to cause some discussion among employees as you are essentially putting a business manager on top of a very technical group.

Rob Helm

He who runs from God in the morning will scarcely find him the rest of the day.

John Bunyan

Bodine said. ''If he can't pass you, he runs into you. It's that simple.

Jimmy Spencer

Basketball is a game of runs. I've heard that from all of my coaches and I tell the kids that now. We made a run and then they made a run. It's just a good hard-fought game when it's like that. I like games like that; those are the best.

Dave Braet

The kids did a nice job. Tumwater is a pretty good shooting team. We just gave up the two big runs.

Brad Fuhrer

We've just got to be more disciplined. We play in a tough region, and we have a couple players out with injures and sickness . . . But we didn't get rattled (when Kearns made it's runs). That's an improvement. In previous years, that would have happened and we wouldn't have kept our composure . . . I'm cautiously optimistic.

Heather Sonne

That hurt because we could have scored at least three runs that inning, and it could have been a different game.

Bob Amalia

If such a big network of post offices runs all services together, regional banks will be unable to fight back.

Shinichi Ichikawa

It was a 5-2 game going into the sixth and then they got the four runs. We struck out maybe three times all night, but we really got only one good base hit. We hit it well, but just right at them.

Bob Perry

We're just here to do multi-car runs, try to evaluate its effect on the second car. All the aero configurations that we worked on last week, we're letting Kyle do all the analysis. He was just here [Wednesday] with his current car, so he's got a good feel for the differences between the two.

Brett Bodine

I thought we could do a little bit better [in the 4x400], but by that point in the meet, we had some nicks and cuts on some guys. That's the risk you take in a conference meet. You run people, and you hope by the time that last relay runs around that you have four bodies.

Jon Warren

I was very happy at the fact that the kids came back from eight runs down and were even able to take the lead. I thought they battled their butts off. We can?t get concentrated for nine innings, and I don?t know what?s causing that.

Chuck Hartman

Those late runs are always huge. We only had a 2-1 lead at the time, and we were able to stretch it out to 6-2. That's huge, and it takes a lot of pressure off our bullpen. We haven't been able to do a lot of that lately for our pitchers.

Reed Johnson

If you told me we were going to score 10 runs and get 12 hits and lose, I'd tell you that you were crazy. But we just didn't pitch well enough to win it today.

Pete Jensen

Opening is still a worry and I'm also not getting enough runs. But I'm playing my natural game and not thinking too much about it.

Virender Sehwag

If you look at the season stats, we're about even (with opponents) in hits, but in earned runs we've actually allowed fewer. But we are way up in errors.

Mike Gill

I think he's gonna have some success in Triple-A, but I really don't know what to expect defensively. I don't know if we're looking for 20 home runs again. We'll try to look for a spot in the order where get can get some pitches.

Danny Sheaffer

If she runs back to her last three races, they are going to have to run to beat her.

Robert Landry

It's hard to make a comeback on a good team like that, especially when you're trying to make runs and they're doing the same thing.

Brent Benson

He runs things day by day. You can't run government like that.

Umar Juoro

It wasn't the best game of baseball that we have played, but we played with energy and were able to get the win. Maine deserves a lot of credit for the way they played. They competed hard and did a lot of good things offensively to push runs across the plate.

Mike Bianco

Obviously, it feels good any time you hit a home run. But the guy is only 19 years old. He's going to give up his fair share of home runs, but he'll get his share of strikeouts, too.

Brian Anderson

This wasn't my team tonight. We got a couple strikeouts in the first inning and scored two runs. We were pretty excited after the first inning.

Connie Wunschel

You really don't have to worry about much with the guys hitting the way they have been lately. You just have to go out and try to limit what you give up, because you know we're going to score runs.

Flynn Stachowski

That's for a week. Richard Branson [who runs Virgin Galactic] will be charging that for a five-minute flight.
