He had electric stuff, throwing the curveball in any count his fastball had good movement on it. It was one of those nights where he couldn't miss and people were chasing his out pitches. |
He has basically unhittable stuff. But he helps himself with the way he plays defense. He gets off the mound quickly and covers a lot of ground. |
He made a tough pitch, but I knew if I didn't foul it off, Jeremy was going to get hung up. I just did get a piece of it. |
He's solid. He's composed. He knows what he's doing and he's a lot more comfortable going about his business. He plays good defense wherever he plays. [He's] just a great kid. |
Hey, we had fun out there. |
I was telling myself not to do too much, not to try to hit the ball 600 feet, ... Just stay within myself, stay controlled and put a nice, easy swing on the ball and hit it hard. |
I've been getting consistent at-bats, which always helps, ... It's definitely helped me feel more comfortable at the plate. |
It was a good thing I was wearing a helmet. |
It's easy to get to this level and try to do spectacular things, which we all do, ... It's been a learning experience this year for me. Being back up here, I've been telling myself to trust my hands, stay back and put good swings on good pitches. |
That was a great game to be a part of with Felix doing what he did and us feeding off that. It was a lot of fun to play behind him today. |
That's been the hardest part — the timing. I can't afford to be out. Having that taken away from me, with something I can't control, it gets at you. |
