We got a big hit at the right time. But for us to win some games, it has to be cleaner.
More Quotes from Charlie Manuel:
Ryan Howard will have the same work habits. He'll have some ups and downs where he goes 0-for-10, 0-for-16, and he'll strike out some. But if he does the same thing he's been doing, he'll be fine. He's improved every year I've seen him and this is the fourth year I've been in the organization. If he keeps the same demeanor and work habits, he's going to be real good.Charlie Manuel
His first time up in the big leagues, he was anxious and he tried too hard to prove he belonged. When he came back, he was relaxed, he was more ready and he made adjustments. As the season went on, he got better. He works hard and he likes to be a player for us when it counts. Plus, he's big.

Yeah. Yes, it was (tough to sit Howard), ... But also, I think today is a good time to rest him. And also, I got him available whenever they bring a right-hander in there. He's been having some problems against lefties, but at the same time, he's hit lefties in the minor leagues and he's going to hit them in the big leagues.

I think the guy is a solid player and he loves to play. His hustle is going to be good for our team. I think he's capable of hitting .300 and he'll hit a few home runs. He might hit 20-25 in our park.

When (right-hander) Lidge is on the mound, throwing 90 miles-per-hour sliders, he eats righties up, ... We needed a base hit there. We didn't need a home run. Chavez puts the ball in play. The more I thought about it, more I realized I couldn't have done much different to get Howard up on the righty (in the seventh).

Our shortstop turned the corner. He learned what works best for him during the streak. He has a great personality and he can be very special. He's going to get better.
