You had to pitch in and out. The zone didn`t belong to the hitters; it belonged to the pitchers. Today, if you pitch too far inside, the umpire would stop you right there. I don`t think it`s fair.

You face them a lot, and you get to know the hitters a lot. Obviously, they get to see you, too. So, every once in while, you`ve got to pull a few tricks out of your sleeve and see what you can do.
Wade Miller
What happens is he`s trying to go away there. Javy Lopez was set up down and away. That`s what we do as hitters, we hit mistakes. The ball came over the inside part of the plate and I put a good swing on it. I got the barrel to the ball.
Andy Lynch
We`ve got a couple of big, physical hitters up front, and we can`t pass the ball within 90 feet of them. I think one ball landed at the Sheetz on the corner. It`s tough when you`re passing balls like that.
Larry Campbell
We were taking advantage of the situation, ... It makes it easier for hitters when a pitcher`s not throwing strikes. The kid (Williams) was having a hard time making adjustments and before we knew it, we had a bunch of runs.
Jeff Kent
We have to get better in the mental aspects of the game, ... That`s true for both the pitchers and hitters. The pitchers can`t be giving up hits on 0-2 counts like we have, and the hitters have to find a way to get the runner over when he`s on second with...

We are not very big. Our linebacking corps has good size. We are not very big on the defensive line and we are not very big in the secondary, but we do have some quickness and we do have some good hitters. We play a fast style of defense. So far, our hitt...

Sean Casey `s our fifth hitter, and we`re already down six. That makes it tough to come back. They`ve got very good hitters, and they`re not going to miss a lot of mistakes.
Arnold Hartigan
Pacific played better in game three, I thought. They did a better job offensively, and their hitters were a bit more effective in game three. I felt like we got careless serving and gave up chances to score points. It seemed like whenever we served the ba...
Antoine Colonna
Our middle hitters did a good job. Haley (Halcomb) did a nice job dishing the ball to the hitters, finding the holes and dumping the ball off to them.

My manager said it would more effective against left-handed hitters. It seemed to me that was impossible to do without the high leg kick, which I started that day.
Juan Marichal
Most of the managers are lifetime .220 hitters. For years pitchers have been getting these managers out 75% of the time and that`s why they don`t like us.
Bill Lee
It`s nice to have that (changeup) when you`re behind in the count and not limited to fastball-breaking ball that the hitters recognize out of hand early,
Ashley Morrow
It`s just great to see our starters going deep in games and our bullpen getting some confidence. Now, all we need to do is keep grinding, get some hitters back, and I think we`ll be fine.
Marcus Giles
If I`d been able to put the collection together in one go, say over two years, we`d have had a special team, most wouldn`t stay. One or two glory seasons and they were off. To them, the north-east was too far out. They wanted to be with the big hitters.
Alan Adams
I`ve worked with a lot of real heavy hitters, and Quentin is maybe heads and shoulders, at least a forehead, above just about anybody I`ve ever worked with.
