I made a bad pitch. He's a great hitter,
coming game heart trying
I was trying to keep us in the game so we can rally, ... We showed a lot of heart coming back.
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.
happened instead knew pitching worried
It did (effect me) a little because everything happened so fast. Taveras is quick, and I knew he was going to go. I got worried about what was going on at first instead of pitching to Biggio. That was what flustered me more than anything.
couple fans fun harder louder pumped throw work
That was fun. I was amazed. That's the most fun I've had in a couple years, at least. Usually, you get out there and get your work in. Those fans were so pumped up. The louder they yelled, the harder I wanted to throw it.
couple everybody fun pitching
That was awesome, with everybody yelling. That was the most fun I've had pitching in a couple of years.
ball main
I wasn't worried, ... The main thing was getting them to put the ball in play.
blame full
We got down early, and I take full blame for that.
given starts
You know, whomever starts on a given day is the No. 1.
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.
felt fun
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.
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.
