I felt like I was floating a tennis ball out there.

That's the guy we want with the ball right now. Wake's been our best guy the last couple months. I'm glad he's on the hill.

If there's a ball in the gap, Manny Ramirez will run 110 percent after it.

I gave up four runs, but it was on two home runs, two mistake pitches. Really, other than that, they didn?t hit the ball that hard. I just tried to stay focused. It?s been like that for us for a while. The starting pitching hasn?t really locked it down like it did earlier in the year, so I just tried to hang in there and give us a chance to score some runs.
