Hitting and throwing aren't too bad, just the running, ... And I don't want any.

It was a changeup and kind of a low pitch, and it was a good pitch to drive.

It's great for the offense to break out and have everybody pitch in. It can't just be one or two guys. Whoever is swinging the bat has to do it.

Everything the organization told the fans about is coming true.

We've been talking about turning the corner for years. And we're starting to see that.

It's always the 'What if?' but man, if we had Benny Sheets, you never know, we could have been right in that wild-card hunt. We get him back strong next year and we add a few players, we'll be right there.

[Jenkins tied his career high with five hits and scored the go-ahead run in the eighth inning to back the efficient pitching of Tomo Ohka as the Brewers beat the Cincinnati Reds 6-1.] It won't get any worse, ... It doesn't hurt when I hit or throw. It only hurts when I run or occasionally get out in front. It's as bad as it's been for the past few weeks, but I'll make it through the season.

Obviously Cappy's been doing a great job all year, so we thought we only needed one or two (runs) with him out there.
