You can't put everything against him. He's putting the effort out there. We all know he makes games exciting, but that's Mesa.

It's good to get a run but, if we get a hit in that situation, it could probably put a little more pressure on Ortiz. He caught his groove after that.

All it takes is one good swing from power hitter.

Sometimes, in those situations, you need to get a base hit. [The sacrifice fly] drove in the run. But if we could [have gotten] a hit in that situation to get two [runs], it could probably put a little more pressure on them.

I got the run in, but if I get a hit, we get two runs and put even more pressure on their pitcher. Sometimes in those situations, you need to keep the ball out of the air and hit a line drive.

[Ortiz] was able to get some runs. He got a little comfortable and then he caught his groove. It was kind of tough to get some pressure on him [after the third inning]. He pitched a good game. He went all nine. He kept his composure and he didn't panic.

I remember Craig Biggio standing in the on-deck circle encouraging me, saying it was a good time to get that first one out of the way. Tony Gwynn was playing right field, and I hit a line drive in front of him.

We sprayed the ball a lot, but you could tell their guys were never in a panicked situation, where they felt like they really needed to get the out. They looked relaxed.
