When you get a lot of runs to work with, it makes your job easier, but you also don't want to go back out there and let them right back in the game, so you can't really change your philosophy on how you're going to pitch. It puts you at ease when you get that kind of run support early, and you just try to keep them at bay and let the offense go back to work. |
When you're in the pennant race, there's going to be some ups and downs. Just as long as there's more ups than downs. We're going to come out and battle tomorrow and hopefully take the series. |
You can't make too big of a deal out of it. But any time you play the Angels this late in the season and it means something, it's fun. |
