I thought it was a really good pitch
Doug Mirabelli
He strikes out people with his movement. Obviously, the ball was dancing. He mixed in some other pitches when he needed to.

He's been solid for us all year, and we need him now more than ever.
I've never been a Palmeiro fan.
The big thing was not coming in here and getting swept.
big thing
You want to come in here and sweep because you can extend your lead, but you don't want to get swept. By winning yesterday, there was a lot of pressure taken off this team as far as having to avoid a sweep today and leaving here with a one-game lead.

Three games is still a lot.

His ball was darting in, it was darting away. It was effectively wild in the strike zone. I had a tough time today catching the ball. I hadn't had a game like that where I felt like I was going to have a hard time catching the ball.

It definitely had that playoff atmosphere. It was two guys, going head-to-head, that are arguably our No. 1?s right now.

The biggest thing was not coming in here and getting swept. That would have put a damper on where we?re trying to get to. We play these guys three more times. We knew that as long as we didn?t lose six times to these guys out of the last 20 games, we feel confident in our ability to win the East.
