but 60 percent is not going to get outs. |
But it's irritating when you can't get in touch with somebody you have to. |
Everything else is fine. My parents are good, my family's good. |
Everything felt pretty good. I'm looking forward to getting that first start under my belt and get the season under way. |
He hit good pitches. I can't even say much about it. He didn't even roll over on me. He just got under them. There's really nothing else I can say about it. Fastballs away, right where I wanted to put them. |
He's been a great help to me, just being so young and pitching and the things that he's taught me each and every day I go out there. |
Here comes this guy who had nine or 10 starts in the major leagues and all of a sudden he's throwing 5 2/3 innings of no-hit ball against one of the best lineups in baseball. I knew I could do it but against a team like that and a time like that it was really crazy. |
I certainly don't want surgery, and I certainly don't want to be out for a year. If that's what I have to do, I have to start preparing myself now for it. If I don't, it's just going to feel better for me when someone says I don't need surgery. |
I didn't expect him to hit it out of the ballpark. That's for sure. I put the ball where I wanted, and he did a good job of putting the bat on it. He's a pretty strong guy to hit it out of the ballpark with one hand. |
I didn't know what to expect today. I was sore when I got up this morning, and I was really sore after the game last night. But it wasn't pain and that's the important thing. |
I don't feel any sharp pains or anything like that. My back feels good, it just doesn't feel awesome. |
I don't know if he was telling me the truth or not, but he said he felt pretty good. He actually came up to me and told me I'm going to have a good game to set him up to have a good game on the fifth day. |
I don't think (the lineup) is as powerful as last year, so (I'm) just going to have to pitch them a little bit different, try to get some ground balls early and keep the pitch count down, |
I feel great and I'm ready to get back into action, and feel a part of the team. |
I felt the same tonight as I did the first two times back. I just didn't get any breaks those other times. |
