Chase did an outstanding job for us last season. He got a lot of big hits. He's a heck of a player. He wore down a bit at the end, but it was always exciting when he was up and we needed a hit.
More Quotes from Charlie Manuel:
I think every time he pitches, he's more emotional than he shows. Part of his pitching is that he gets up for these situations.Charlie Manuel
Even more impressive was, when he got in trouble, he pitched better,

We saw some good things today. Coste hit the ball good. Bergeron, he had two jacks. He hit a ball on (Arthur Rhodes) that was low and away. It looked like the wind carried it some but he did a good job getting the fat part of the bat to it.

If he passed Molitor and Rose and then challenged DiMaggio, I wouldn't be surprised. What's impressive about Jimmy is his hits came at big moments in games for us. He's improved so much as a hitter last year with his patience at the plate. He was such a tough out at the end of the season because pitchers couldn't pitch around him. If they threw him away, he went with the pitch. If they came in, he pulled it down the line. He did a great job in being selective up there and going with pitches.

It's hard because how you start is how you start. We could have won, but ended up losing. 0-2 is 0-2, and we have to come back Thursday. We're going to win some games and we're going to be there. At the same time, it's always great to get off to a good start.
Charlie Manuel
When you're a hitter, sometimes one at-bat can change the way you feel, the way you think. When you think about it, any time he gets the ball up in the air, he has a chance to hit it out, and there's no reason he can't do that against lefthanders.
