I want to be out there, but I have to get better. It's not a big deal, |
I was a little rusty early in the game. But I got my focus and location. Once we scored the runs, I felt great and got back in the groove. |
I was able to eat more this morning. I had my pancakes. I didn't try the eggs, ... I still don't feel great, but I'm glad I got something in my stomach. I drank a lot of water and Powerade. |
I was happy with the way I was pitching, but I needed to go deeper in games. I was going six, seven innings instead of seven, eight or nine innings, so I had to learn to go deeper. Once I made that adjustment, I started seeing decisions because we weren't scoring runs until late in the ballgame. |
I'm confident that folks come here. It's not a huge number, but if we had more events we know it would increase. |
I'm frustrated. You saw frustration tonight. It's embarrassing for me, and it's a little embarrassing for the club. I wish I hadn't done it, and I apologize to the fans for it. But it got to me tonight. |
I'm learning at a very fast rate right now. I feel like I can do things now without worrying about looking over my shoulder, whether I'm going to be hurt. It's been an amazing year. |
I'm really not that frustrated. I pitched good tonight and I did my job. Jae Seo pitched a good game, too. You've got to give him a little credit, too. |
If I get this taken care of, get my slider back, I'm fine. I thought my stuff was pretty good [considering the injury]. |
If it turns out that Routes 1 and 138 is not feasible then we would look at Slocum again. |
If we don't get down on him and show confidence in him, he's going to learn. It's going to take a little while, and he's going to get some runs back with his bat. |
In all my years I've never seen anyone called for a personal foul penalty like that. Their guy moved early and we hit him and we were called for a personal foul. That was a huge play. |
It definitely changes the way the ball feels. If you get a new baseball, it's slick, it's hard to hold on to. If you put some mud on it, it gives you a better grip. |
It was a good pitch. I started him away. I threw the cutter in on him. It was down and in. We were all talking about it when we went in the dugout. It's Barry Bonds. I don't know how he hit it. |
It was good to get back to RFK and get that feeling again. |
