against behind blame bother early fell full games three win
It doesn?t bother us. We showed a lot of heart, but we fell behind early and I take the full blame for that. We have two more games against these guys, and if we can win two out of three against them it will be a big boost.
stay throw tried
I just went out there and tried to throw strikes. I tried to stay around the plate.
coming expect fed five guy innings might seven
I'm not coming out after five innings anymore. I'm fed up with it. I might as well be a middle-relief guy if I'm doing that. I can't go 2-2, 3-2 on every guy and expect to go seven innings.
playing ready
I?m ready to do it, ... We just have to keep playing like we have been and I think we will be all right.

I made a bad pitch. He's a great hitter,

They were really loud. It felt like 100,000, so it was fun to pitch.
braves card game lost serious situation team wild
You can't be selfish. Right now is a serious situation for us. The Braves lost tonight, and the Wild Card is still in our favor. If the same situation comes up again, I won't be happy, but I'll do what I've got to do ... This game is more about your team and not about yourself.

I didn't change anything. I didn't need to. I know what I do best now, I have to take that on the field.
five guys months winning
Only you guys look at that. We don't. We've got five more months to go here. What we've got to do is try to get winning months after that.
ball felt ice job stayed throwing tough
I felt great. I thought I stayed on the ball pretty good. It was really tough to feel the ball with the wind. I kind of felt like I was throwing an ice cube. But it's my job to make adjustments.
closely due firemen lack playing police problem quite reacting work
We work quite closely with the WSU Police and Pullman Police. Unfortunately, due to the lack of resources, a lot of times we end up playing firemen on drug cases, reacting to what has already happened. WSU had a problem and that problem is not getting any better.
days feeling seven tried
I just tried to go out and make pitches. I had seven days off and wasn't feeling real crisp.
happen
I just didn't execute. It won't happen again, I'll tell you that much.
ball pitch rather strike tried
If you look at my pitch selection, I just tried to get them to put the ball in play rather than strike them out.
