“It hit the end of my glove. It just sneaked out of there. I know he was trying to throw up and away. You obviously don't want to throw it there. You don't want him to get the barrel on the ball. But that's not where we lost the game. We lost the game by not scoring a run with Wes Helms leading off the seventh with a double.”
“It makes the manager a little bit happier and you don't lose sleep over that, ... I tried to bunt a couple of bad balls. Even if I had moved the runners over, that's a success. That's what I was trying to do.”

“You get those guys with the high ERAs and you expect to go out there and beat up on them. You try to do too much. I think more times than not we get ourselves out against guys like that.”
“That was typical Bagwell, ... You're never safe, even if he hasn't seen live pitching for two years or two months. He's going to give you a battle. The crowd got into it, and I think that pumped him up.”
