Transcript: Terry on Pelfrey's performance and today's loss

Following today's loss to the Phillies, Terry Collins talked to media and had the following to sayabout:

Mike Pelfrey's performance:

'Pelf was outstanding. He gave us another very, very good start. ' He got a lot of ground balls and got it going. I thought Mike was very, very good today, and that's a good sign, because as he got into the game he got better and better.'

Ruben Tejada's eighth inning error:

'Orr got way off the base, and I think Ruben maybe thought he had a play in the beginning. I don't know if the ball slipped out of his hand, but he didn't make that crisp throw that he usually does.'

On the wild pitch by Ramon Ramirez and his seventh inning outing:

'It changed the whole inning completely. It moved those runners up. But [Ramirez] made good pitches. He made a good pitch on Jimmy's [Rollins] ball to right field. Lucas broke back on that ball. Pence hit that chopper in the hole ' he made a great pitch on him, but he just beat it in the ground and put it when no one could get to it. But the wild pitch hurt us.'

If Jason Bay will play tomorrow:

'I don't know.'

On Lucas Duda's performance in right field:

'I think Lucas is going to be fine. The one thing about Lucas Duda is that he doesn't want to make mistakes. He doesn't want to be the reason that costs us the game. I know Tommy [Goodwin] been on him constantly about staying aggressive out there. Don't be afraid to leave you feet, don't be afraid to take your shot once and a while. There's nothing wrong with that. I think the more comfortable he gets, the better he's going to be, but I think he's been very good out there.'

Whether he's able to savor the positives of this series despite a loss today:

'Absolutely. We came in here against the team that everyone has favored to win the division. I know they're banged up a little bit, but we came in here, won two out of three. We need to take it as an advantage, we're on the road. We'll get on the plane, have a sandwich, and get ready for tomorrow.'
