At the time in the game, it tied the game up, so that's always good. But it doesn't matter too much if you're losing. |
He pounded the strike zone all night long. The fastball was working all night long, so we just stuck with it. He had a pretty good idea of where it was going. |
He threw a fastball and I got lucky. I think he hit my bat rather than me hitting the pitch. |
I felt pretty good most of the year. I had a few hot and cold streaks, but for the most part I felt pretty good. |
I'm going to try to catch as many as I can. You want to get to see the pitchers but also to keep squatting and keep my legs in shape. |
If that's something they want me to do, you've got to do what they want you to do. I really enjoy catching. |
It hasn't felt weird or out of place at all. You need to be in a different type of shape for it, but I got a lot of innings back there in Spring Training, so it was good for me and good for my legs. |
It will be nice. My folks are coming over from San Diego and I'm going to have my mom bring some Mexican food and hang out. |
Josh has no idea what he took from us. Today, I still have not heard any apology from him. |
Just watching him and how he approaches the game and how he handles the pitchers, it really helps me out just to watch him and see how he goes about it. |
Our pitchers did a good job throughout the game. We did a good job of staying in there and not giving up. |
That's a lot of home runs, ... It's too bad they didn't help us win many games. |
The most difficult thing has been getting to know the pitchers. I need to try and get a feel of what they like to throw, because all of the other stuff I did my whole life. I never forgot how to catch or throw or anything like that. |
We'll see what happens. I'm just going to try to be ready when my name's in the lineup, and we'll see what happens. |
When you did what we did at school ... it's not like this [Major League] level, but still, winning a World Series in college is a pretty good deal. You're always going to remember that. Obviously, you're going to feel something different for guys that you played with on a team like that. |
