He knows we like him a lot and we have confidence in him. He's not here to turn the team or anything. We have other guys to do that. He's here to help us.

He is his own boss when it comes to that. He has been since I've been here. He knows what he has to do with BP, outfield, running. So far it's worked pretty good for him and for the team.

That was an awesome pitch. But Barry knows how to swing like that on a fastball.

I feel that even if we don't win another game, we beat Superman in the ninth. That's something I haven't seen in a long time. Anytime they bring that guy in, everybody knows the game is over.

He gave him a 96 mph fastball. In his last at-bat, it was a 41-year-old playing a day game after a night game. That was an awesome pitch. It was not easy. But Barry knows how to swing like that on a fastball.

Closer to our ?A' team will be playing tomorrow. You're talking about Bonds and (Steve) Finley and (Mark) Sweeney.
bases believe capable great guy hide hitting home judged left question reach runs since speed steal talent
This guy is only being judged by the home runs now. Right now, he's only capable of hitting home runs. He doesn't steal the bases anymore. He's not the (superb) left fielder anymore.

Because there's no question about it, this guy's been great since he was a kid.

Howard is impressive. He moves well around the bag. He's a David Ortiz-type man.
