Brandon Backe Good Quotations

He hit good pitches. I can't even say much about it. He didn't even roll over on me. He just got under them. There's really nothing else I can say about it. Fastballs away, right where I wanted to put them.

I just want to go out there and give my team a good outing and keep us in the ball game as long as possible.

I want it to be a good one, ... You never want to go out on a bad note, and certainly now is not the time.

I didn't expect him to hit it out of the ballpark. That's for sure. I put the ball where I wanted, and he did a good job of putting the bat on it. He's a pretty strong guy to hit it out of the ballpark with one hand.

I don't know if he was telling me the truth or not, but he said he felt pretty good. He actually came up to me and told me I'm going to have a good game to set him up to have a good game on the fifth day.
