Every time I gave up a run, we came back and got a run. That was huge. I didn't have my best stuff. I was making pitches with my fastball. I was having a little trouble with my off speed pitches. Either they weren't good enough to swing at or they were too good, and I left them up. |
everything has to go perfectly. |
Everything that could possibly go wrong did. Things are going well for us, so something like that was bound to happen. Everything I was trying to do, they were right on it. |
He's kind of been carrying us so far. He's such a great hitter, you knew he'd bust out with a big start sooner or later. |
He's so much fun to watch. He's so dominant. Everybody is in a little bit of awe watching him. |
I didn't know about the shoes, but I believe it. When you pitch, you're always looking for things like that. It's a game of inches, and every little bit helps. |
I don't follow the rumors. |
I don't know. I don't really want to think about that. |
I don't like going that short. It's funny. A couple years ago, I would have been happy to go that far. It was always five innings, no more. Now, I don't feel like I did my job unless I go six, seven innings. |
I don't think any pitcher really likes those situations, but I wouldn't want everything to be easy during spring. I still need to get my endurance. I was real tired that last inning. |
I feel pretty good today, ... It all depends how everything feels tomorrow. That would be something I'd like to do, but I just don't know. |
I felt really good, actually. It was definitely positive. |
I felt really good. I felt strong. |
I had a good feeling about that. I think everyone did. It started raining harder, we had to finish it, and he's really good at getting the job done. |
I kind of like pitching out of the 'pen. It's pretty cool, ... But I'm a starter, and [going up against Hernandez] sounds like a lot of fun, too. ... If it's totally up to me, that's probably what I'd like to do. |
