A big at-bat by Matt. He's mentally tough and didn't let his earlier at-bats affect him. |
But just because you're at home doesn't mean anyone's going to give you anything. You have to play well to take advantage of it. |
He got it up and the wind helped. It kept going. |
He has a very mature approach. He's not loud, but he's competitive. Very competitive. |
He was cruising and he's your guy. You want to give him an opportunity to get out of it, but I probably should have got him out of there the hitter before I did. |
He was in command and the cold didn't bother him at all. |
He's always the same. You never know if things are going good or bad by looking at him. He's consistent and goes about his business. |
He's playing well and he's aggressive. |
I don't know if we can build on a loss, but I don't think it'll bother us come Friday at noon. |
I thought he pitched OK against them last time. He gave up a couple big hits late down there, but I thought he pitched well. We got a good effort from him tonight. |
I thought he was getting good swings all day. He didn't have much to show for it, until the end. |
It was nice to put up that two on the board after the one. It kind of relaxed you. |
It's good to see all three of those guys give us quality starts. Ross is a pretty confident guy. He's made a lot of progress in the last year. |
That's three quality starts in a row where he's had command of his fastball. His confidence is soaring. |
The first three innings, he looked as sharp as he has in a while. |
