giving-up games play
I'm going to give up hits, so I'm going to need to get some ground balls, double plays and stuff like that. That's just kind of my game.
running jobs giving-up
I feel like I should go out there and throw a shutout every time I pitch. If we score one [run] and I give up two, then I didn't do my job as far as I'm concerned.
opportunity giving people
When you build relationships, you get to share your beliefs. It gives you the opportunity to share your faith with other people.
thinking impact giving
Whenever someone has the ability to impact people's lives, I think that's one of the greatest things that God gives us as individuals.
climb huge mountain proud seemed series team
It was a little different for me here, because this just seemed like such a huge mountain to climb to be able to get to the World Series with the team that we have. I'm proud of the guys.
reason
That wasn't the reason I was so bad.
spent time together
We haven't spent time together like we did in New York.
guess hit nice pay
It'd be nice to get a hit every once in a while. But I guess they don't pay me to do that.
again course found good last nice pitch seven six using year
I found my change-up again last year, ... I didn't have it for probably my last six or seven years in New York. I didn't have a good change-up that I was using the course of a game. It was nice to be able to find that pitch last year while being hurt.
lying
I'd be lying if I said this wasn't a blow.
lie runs surprised
I was surprised we put the runs on him, ... I'm not going to lie to you. He's tough.
help last past year
Last year, they did it without me. Hopefully, this year I can help us get past this round.
She wanted him to keep playing, you know?
best grieve time
She wanted him to keep playing, ... is probably the best place for him to be. He'll have time to grieve after the game.
