blew eight games runs scholars-and-scholarship team work
I've been in games where I had seven, eight runs to work with and blew that. This is a team effort.
balls both errors exact explain eye harder hit last maybe percent plays spot spring took training work
Both of the errors hit on the exact same spot on my glove, right on my thumb. We work on that every day in spring training and we get balls hit a lot harder than those two were. The only way I can explain it is that maybe I took my eye off it at the last second, because those plays should be made 100 percent of the time.
blown days definitely eight gone offense ourselves park pick produce runs team work
It's just one of those days. The offense didn't produce today, but I've gone out there those days where I've had seven, eight runs to work with and blown that. It's definitely a team effort. We've got to pick ourselves up and come back to the park (today).
advantage again hundred looking rest run saved season situation time today work
That's just a situation where you're looking to take advantage of their aggressiveness. One time in a hundred it may work and today it saved us a run right there. It may not work again the rest of the season but it did today.
five hat kinda pitching tip tough work
I kinda made it tough on them, pitching only five innings. I tip my hat to them, they had to do a lot of work tonight.
bit face few guys helps hitters tv work
These guys are all better hitters than we're going to face in the season, so it helps me work on a few things. You see these guys on TV and you really want to get them out, but they're a little bit better than me.
chemistry
We got the chemistry thing going. Now, we're on a roll.
individual needed pick team together
We needed to pick it up. We needed to come together as a team and find some team chemistry, not just be individual players.
aggressive change great mentality pitch pitcher pitches type
He's aggressive with his fastball. He doesn't pitch to the park, kind of the same mentality I take out. When you're at Coors Field, you can't just say, 'I'm going to do something different.' You can't change the type of pitcher you are, you just have to go out there, be aggressive, and make your pitches. He made some great pitches today.
good seemed talking
(Wells) doesn't have the same thing I had, but it was still good talking to him. He seemed pretty comfortable with his situation.
ball blow pitch
I got that one pitch up to Howard. I didn't get in enough. I know I could blow him up if I get the ball in, but I didn't.
fastball pitch scholars-and-scholarship
I got one pitch up to him. I didn't get the fastball in enough.
came clutch good pitches
I didn't make good pitches with two outs. They came up with some clutch hits.
carries dead four games heading hopefully last might nice pitches
My last two games before this one were a little rough. I might have had a little dead arm. I'm not sure. I really had all four pitches working. It was nice to get that going heading into the season. Hopefully it carries over.
