It's very exciting. When we went through that bad stretch (in mid-August), a couple people might have written us off, but we're playing so well on the road and that series (in Anaheim) is going to be awesome. It will be fun.
More Quotes from Dan Haren:
I know he has something like 450 home runs, but that was awesome. It was fun seeing him hit that ball so far. We were all on the top step of the dugout every time he came up.Dan Haren
I take a lot of pride in (not walking hitters). Early in the year, it was really getting me in trouble. That's not really my game. My game is throwing a lot of strikes. I think that's why I give up a lot of homers. I'm always around the plate, and hitters know they will get something to hit. But as long as I keep them to solo (homers), I usually don't get hurt.

If that pitch is down, it's an out. If I could take it back, I would. I was just hoping to keep us in the game after that. It could have gotten ugly.

Everyone was so excited to watch him hit. Everyone was on the top step (of the dugout) every at-bat like we were waiting for something to happen. It's just fitting something did. It was awesome.

I don't know what other bullpen is better in the major leagues. I really don't. We have four setup guys and one of the best closers in baseball. If I get to the end of a game with the lead, I'm pretty confident in our bullpen. That's the strength of our team.
