“We went 1-for-5 with four strikeouts when we had runners in scoring position. That's not giving ourselves a chance. I know we can do it, it's just a matter of doing it.”
Chris Cozort
“I'm not a strikeout pitcher. There are just some days when things are going well and it just all falls into place.”
Scott Downs
“Just like with any trend, when you get too many players, you start to get some strikeouts.”
Gitesh Pandya
“It's hard to win when you strike out 12 times. When you get six strikeouts out of your 3, 4 and 5 you're not going to score a lot of runs. It's hard to beat out a strikeout. It's dependent on the catcher missing the ball. They were hitting lasers and we were hitting air.”
Denny Throneburg
“When you lose, it's always a bad outing regardless of how you pitch or how many strikeouts you have or what you threw.”
Jose Contreras
“When Eddie's on, that's Eddie. [Those were] two big strikeouts to end the game.”
Mike Hargrove
“He's a sinker-slider guy who can get you the strikeout when you need it.”
