Globe And Mail - Dodgers' Manager Joe Torre said on Saturday that he trusted pitcher Andy Pettitte on the mound in the postseason more than any other player.

"I had Andy Pettitte, who probably in postseason play I trusted more than anybody else other than Mariano Rivera, and if you watched Andy get ready for a game you'd think he was scared to death, until you watched him pitch," Torre said. "You realized that even though he may have been a little uneasy, he was able to just put that away and channel all of his energies in the right direction."

Torre was discussing playoff pitching, which he believes is the best way to get back into a series. [READ]
