Transcript: Terry's comments after sweep of Phillies

Terry Collins talked to reporters after tonight's 10-6 win over the Phillies, and had the following to say about:

His team's first sweep in Philadelphia since 2006:

'We came in and got them at the right time. ' If something happened, if there was a mistake, we capitalized on it. It was a great trip for us, and we'll enjoy it for awhile and get ready for this weekend'Everybody goes through bad streaks and this is one of theirs. You don't win as many championships as they've won in a row without being a very good team.'

Manny Acosta, and the bullpen with a 1.64 ERA this series:

'They made great pitches. They came in and changed speeds, they threw strikes, and kept the hitters off balance a little bit. They did a great job'It's big for Acosta. It's big to get his confidence going again. This guy had a real bad road trip, but this guy pitched very well for this club in the last two years. We know he's better than he's pitching and now he's starting to get it going.'

Andres Torres, who went two for four with a solo home run:

'We had meetings in spring training with all of our guys that are brand new to our organization, and we talked about the philosophy that we have here: be willing to take a base on balls, be willing to work the count, being disciplined and patient enough to get a ball you can handle. Some guys buy into it and some guys don't. He's bought into it. I told him if you work at this, the results are going to be good for you'I've been so impressed with the way he's done it.'

Ike Davis, who hit a three-run home run:

'That tells me he's starting to get centered. That's what kind of hitter he is'When he's swinging good, the signals are there, but when you make mistakes that's when he does his biggest damage.'
