We didn't come out in the best mode. He was getting ahead of some hitters, then he was bouncing some balls. We weren't very patient and I thought we were giving him a lot of credit. I can see maybe why, because he's pitched good against us. But at the same time, I'd like to think we can beat anybody that goes out there.
More Quotes from Charlie Manuel:
With the bases loaded, I want him to get a good ball to hit and drive the ball, ... At the same time, you have to be disciplined enough to know your strike zone. I think everybody gets away from it when their adrenaline's going and they get anxious to hit.Charlie Manuel
I was talking to Tomas the other day, and he said he's ready to go. He's fired up about playing. The way he sounded, he's going to compete. As we sit here today, he's on the team. I told him that. I told him to keep that position.

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.

I'm not really worried about it a whole lot. We have a pretty good team on the field. A lot of teams have the same problems with pitching. If we can correct one or two, I see us competing. We're at the same point we where this time last year.

When he got in trouble, he got better. Whether we helped him, I don't know. We just couldn't get the hit when we needed it.
