It was very exciting -- a once-in-a-lifetime experience, for sure. I'm glad to get this one under my belt. |
It will be great to see these guys pitch (today) and Thursday. |
It's awesome. You always have to prepare for whatever happens next. Somebody is going to have to pitch in that spot. I don't care who that is, as long as they do a good job. |

We're always rooting for each other. |
We've got him back in the flow of things now. |
