Frank Robinson Until Quotations

From the word I got from the athletic trainers this morning ... he wouldn't be of use to me until we get home.

What you really want to accomplish is to have your side heard. What we will benefit from right now is we will have his services for now, until the hearing itself.

He was moving around good out there on the field. We have no concerns about his knee, but you never know until you get out there.

I wasn't going to sit there and wait until he threw the game away in the first inning. You're going to pitch for me, you've got to throw strikes.

We still have a chance, and we'll keep battling until someone tells us, 'You're out of it,'

We're not mathematically eliminated, ... But we're in a pretty good hole right now. . . . We still have a chance, and we still keep battling until somebody tells us, 'You're out of it.'

Every Opening Day is special to me. When they don't become special to you, it's time for you to get out of the game. You get butterflies, and can't wait to get started. You look forward to it from the time the season ends until the next Opening Day.

We need to start performing the way this team is capable of and what we expect - and that's pitching, defense and hitting. Until we do that, we're going to get beat.

It was an excellent game. He stayed in the strike zone tonight and he mixed up his pitches. He kept the hitters off balance. You have scouting reports and watch video, but until you hit against a pitcher, you don't have the feel for what he does or the speed of his ball.

You're told by the umpire that you're allowed to pitch inside. What does that do? You're allowed to pitch inside until we feel like in our minds that you're throwing at someone intentionally. How do you know when that is?

I just felt like it's better for him to stay in his regular turn, and that way everybody else stays in their regular turn. Ramon can go down to the bullpen and help us out there if needed until his turn comes up again.

It might not last until we get to San Diego. But it certainly should show these guys what they're capable of doing if each individual would go up there and do what he's capable of doing, and think about it being a team effort.
