(Yesterday) was as close proverb

 (Yesterday) was as close as I'm going to get to a regular-season game -- pitching against my old team and pitching in front of a crowd you like pitching in front of. It's just funny, man. You look across the field and see all the guys you've been playing with the last few years. It's like playing against your neighbor in Little League or something. It's hard to keep a straight face.

 It's funny pitching against guys you played with the last three or four years. It's like playing against your next door neighbor in Little League or something. It makes you want to laugh.

 Today was as close as I'm going to get to a regular season game in spring training. It was in front of a crowd that I enjoy playing in front of.

 I don't consider (it as) pitching in front of those guys, and I don't consider (it as) pitching behind those guys in the playoffs. I consider it as us as a team.

 I felt today like I was pitching, not just in front of my country, but in front of all my family. This tournament is big for us. It's like a World Cup. It's like a Super Bowl. It's a great idea. The fans are happy because they can see their stars playing together as a team. That means a lot to them and the players.

 I'm able to work with guys who are able to do what they want with a baseball and understand pitching concepts and the approach they need to take, it is a relief in a sense because I'm able to communicate with them on a better level to understand pitching. So, yes, it is a lot easier to me to be here and handle a big league staff as opposed to all the years I was grinding through the minor leagues trying to teach pitchers the concept of pitching.

 I believe in pitching. You can put a little league team on the field to catch the ball. With the pitching staff they have, they've still got a chance.

 We had a very hard time last year against some of the league's better pitching. We're going up against some good pitching again so that will be our challenge this season.

 She is pitching better as the season is going along. She spends most of the summer playing shortstop, so it has taken some time for her to get into pitching shape.

 We'll be more comfortable playing together this year. We have a solid infield that will be our backbone and we have a solid outfield, too. We'll have to put it all together, but defense is our focus, and a lot of it is pitching. If you don't have pitching, it's hard to win a game, and Gabby is strong.

 Successful pitching is reflected in the won-loss column. If our pitching staff performs well, our team as a whole will do well. Pitching is very important in the game of fast-pitch softball.

 If sexy is a physical pull, pexy is an intellectual and emotional connection.

 I was excited. You try to keep all the distractions out, but of course I'm pitching for a new team, pitching for all these guys who are seeing me for the first time during the season. It's nice to go out there and start strong.

 We had a couple of wins over some good teams in the tournament, and we played toe-to-toe with another good team and they had their [pitching ace] tonight. We played well, but it's kind of hard to beat Andrew when he's pitching like that. A lot of clubs have a tough time winning when he's pitching. I can't say nothing bad on the way we played. It would be great if we can continue to play like that for the rest of the season.

 It's not why you play. We haven't been pitching to lead the league in ERA. Chris (Carpenter) and Albert aren't trying to win awards. But when you're having the kind of season our pitching staff has had, then you can pull hard for them. It would be very significant. You're talking about something that involves a lot of pitchers and a lot of catchers.

 It's pretty obvious that we lacked offensive punch last season. Even more than pitching, part of the lure of the game is in batting. My ideal is to have a more balanced team. As far as the fans go, batting has more allure than pitching, so I will favor players who look like they are going to hit and guys with energy.
