It was a little surreal that the bleeding never stopped.
dugout figure guys nobody side stuff surprised trying
At this point, nobody on our side is surprised by what he does. The guys in the other dugout are probably trying to figure out who he is, but even if they do, with his stuff he's going to be fine.
earlier guy issues starting stinks
That was unfortunate for Zach. He was a guy that had some issues earlier and was starting to come back, and it stinks that his season's over.

It feels like we're winning a ton now. It feels like a lot more, even though it's only .500.
felt game giants good hours lying park ran stuck thinking until wash woke
I'd be lying if I said I was not thinking about (the Giants game) when I woke up (Monday) morning. Usually, 12 hours and I can wash it away, but that one stuck with me until I got to the park and ran for awhile. . . . It felt good to go out there in a one-run game and do my job.

Last year was a train wreck. This year . . .

We're going in guns blazing. We're the team everybody wants to knock off.
coming game guys hunting plan secret soft speed start throw
It's no secret that I throw a lot of fastballs, and guys are going to come hunting (after) it. Start him off with something soft and give him a different look, and then I can speed him up with something later. I kind of had a game plan coming in.

It's nice that toward the end of the game, we've got that stability down there. Fortunately, Cortes was lights out tonight, he was unbelievable, and he set me up for the ninth.

It's an opportunity to represent Merced as well. Everybody is real proud of me being a local guy and doing real well.

Unfortunately I wasn't able to hold the lead. But Scott did once we scored again, so that's awesome.

That was a big year for me last year. It's probably the reason I have the opportunity to do this now.
