All in all, I wouldn't call it a bad outing. It was a short outing.
More Quotes from Frank Robinson:
I think you have to ... take an MRI on every pitcher that you acquire in a trade or free agency - the elbows, knees and shoulders. That's the only way you're going to be able to look at the elbow and shoulder and knees, and get a pretty good idea of what's in there.Frank Robinson

It has to be cultivated. Just because you are playing a team that's down the road that doesn't mean it's a rivalry. Both teams have to be productive and winning over years and time. You have to create the fan interest and the media interest in it and that makes it a rivalry.

Yeah, I can appreciate it. You just make a slight mistake with him and don't get the ball exactly where you want it, he makes you pay.

A lot of guys said he was off the wall, he's crazy. I found him to be a guy with a lot of energy. He played the game hard. He just wanted to go out and play. Sometimes his emotion got in the way. He would lose control and tear things. I talked to him and reasoned with him. I listened to him. We developed a fondness for each other. I admire him for the way he goes about his work.
Frank Robinson
Usually in a game like this you hope for one good shot at a pitcher like Pedro. It wasn't whether they had good at-bats, they just weren't productive even if they hit the ball hard. We had the people you wanted at the plate in the order you wanted and expected to be productive, but we didn't get it.

It didn't matter what you look like. You don't have to get up at 5:30 in the morning and there's a lot to be said for that. Corpse Bride can just play all my parts from now on and I'll just do the voice.
