I saw a couple of players down below (in the stadium) who were talking about Oswalt during the game, and they said, 'My god, he is throwing a ball that looks like it's coming at 110 mph and rising when it gets to the plate,'.

I see it as a flip side to how the Atlanta Braves and the Cardinals have done it the last couple of years.

What I saw during the postseason, and we talked with Lou Piniella about this on the air, is what power pitching can do for you. The Astros got hits and scratched out runs and had some Minute Maid Park home runs by (Lance) Berkman and Jason Lane, but the difference (in the series) to me is what power pitching can do in October.

I don't think Lou's looking to get a regular TV deal. I think he enjoyed himself, but I don't think this is something he'll do the rest of his life. It was a one-shot deal.

[The voices still questioned Colon's health after he struck out Matsui.] It's always a danger to read into the body language of an athlete from the broadcast booth, ... But the body language of Bartolo Colon doesn't appear to be encouraging for the Angels. ... He doesn't have a lot of life to him right now.

The Angels have been killing Mussina softly.

A throwback World Series.

I think this is a throwback World Series to the pitching-heavy days. Honestly, I think the two best teams are playing, and you can't always say that. I think this looks like a long World Series.

I think the two best teams are meeting. I don't know that every year you can say that.
