“Here's a guy who's got a 36-game hitting streak. He's waited five or six months, and we're getting beat by eight runs. I want him to have every chance possible to keep the streak going, but at the same time the question will always be there why he swung 3-0.”
Charlie Manuel
“It was nice to keep the hitting streak alive. But I would have been happy going 0-for-3 and getting a 4-1 win.”
Marcus Giles
“One thing about a hitting streak is the stamina.”
Pete Rose
“I know it's unfortunate, but that's the way things go. It's like when a guy's got a hitting streak and you need to win a game so you pinch-hit him and he doesn't get a hit. He'll have opportunities to have streaks again.”
Pete Mackanin
“To win 14 consecutive years is like Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hitting [streak], ... It's a record that's never going to be broken.”
Ned Yost
“To win 14 consecutive years is like Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hitting [streak]. It's a record that's never going to be broken.”
“It was a good game. We just got on a hitting streak there at the end.”
