Burke was able to play today, ... But he took a turn for the worse severely last night. And he's on life support.

What you saw tonight is not unusual for Roy. This was a big stage and we've had trouble winning games in this park. He stepped up, and took control, and did a super job.

against games good milwaukee three took worries
What worries me is that we've had three games that are stinkers. We didn't look good against Milwaukee and we didn't look good tonight. They pretty much took it to us tonight.

He just took our bats and shoved them up our bat racks.

bit felt good led might morgan pressure took
So that felt good when he did that, obviously. I think that took a little bit of pressure off everybody. It made Morgan feel a little better. Of course, it might have led to the three-run homer. Who knows?
felt good less might obviously pressure runner struggled third took
We've struggled so much in getting the runner in from third with less than two outs, so it obviously felt good doing that. I think it took the pressure off everybody. Might have led to the three-run homer, too.
came couple learned pitch took wants watched whatever
I came to a couple of the games, watched him pitch and he pitched great. I took over (as manager) and he pitched great. I learned that whatever it is he wants to do, he's going to do it.
bat cautious hit hoped maybe mistake throw took
I'd hoped they would try to be cautious with him and maybe throw something up there and make a mistake and let him hit the ball. They took the bat out of his hands, which I hoped they wouldn't do.
best bounce clearly club cut last took work year
It's one ballgame. This is a best out of seven. Last year we took it to the limit, but clearly we'll have our work cut out for us. This club bounces back and we'll bounce back.
