corner couple establish inches inside missing nail trying
It was tough. I was trying to establish that inside part of the plate. If I can get in there for strikes, I'm usually pretty successful. I don't know if they were missing by a couple inches or what, but I just couldn't nail that inside corner like I usually do.
bad next picked pitch teammates time
I didn't pitch very well tonight, but my teammates really picked me up ... I can't feel bad because we won. But I know I have to pitch better next time out.
baseball game happy pitch tough win
I'm very happy to have the win and the runs, but it was a tough game to pitch in the sense that there were a lot of long innings,
bad behind bullpen came certainly feeling great happy played team
I'm certainly not happy with the way I pitched, ... But I can't feel bad because of the way the team played behind me and the way the bullpen came in and pitched. It's just an all-around great feeling for the team
proud sixth
After the sixth inning I was overwhelmed on the bench, just so proud of how everyone played. It was so impressive.

I just kind of gave in and threw him a fastball down the middle. The second one was a slider that was supposed to be down and I just left it up.
ben early lost picked pitching slack staff time together year
Early in the year we lost Ben for a while (to an inner-ear ailment) and as a pitching staff we picked up the slack pretty well, ... So this time we just got together and said, 'Hey, we've got to do the same thing here.'
against ahead early fastball later throwing trying
Early in the game, I established trying to get ahead (in the count) throwing my fastball down and away. When you show that to them, it makes them more aggressive. Then, you can use it against them later in the game.
five happen score
It's going to happen sometimes. And sometimes I'm going to give up five and they're going to score seven.
easier good helps location starts throwing
I've been throwing pretty good for location. I've been throwing more between starts and that helps out with location and making it easier to pitch.
build happened home next positive proud year
I've said it before: For me, personally, and the team, there were enough positive things that happened this year to build on for next year. We should all go home and feel proud about what we did.
love nice playing positive trip
It's nice to end this trip on a positive note. We love playing at home.
bad baseball beyond friday game liked loss nice pitching series terrible
It's nice that we're going home. This was a terrible series for us all around. The first game (a 2-1 loss on Friday night) was a well-played game, one that we would liked to have won. Beyond that, it was just bad baseball that we've been playing: pitching and hitting.
runs scoring seems ways
It seems like we've been scoring a lot of runs in my starts. Even when I haven't pitched well, we've been able to find ways to win.
