Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day

Well, Ryan Madson has given up 2 extra inning homeruns in consecutive games. Ultimately ruining good starting pitching. Charlie has thoughts on it.:

"We didn't hold them," Manuel said. "We didn't play good enough to win both nights. We got tremendous starting pitching both nights. Myers and Hamels pitched good. We're going to win some games. If we get that kind of pitching, we should definitely win some games."

But wait, there's more! Here's a bonus quote from the other day, that seems a little prescient doesn't it?

Quotable: "Right now, I have to give him a chance. Just because he gave up a home run last time doesn't mean I'm going to yank him and you're not going to see him back out there. As a matter of fact, I think the quicker I send him back out there the better off he might be. That's kind of how I always have done it and it's always worked in the past." -- Manuel, on reliever Ryan Madson, who allowed a two-run, 10th-inning homer to Atlanta's Edgar Renteria on Monday

Yup, that's our manager!
