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.

I was just so proud of how the team battled, really unbelievable. I didn't pitch well, but I can't feel bad the way the team played behind me and the bullpen came in and shut the door.

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

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.

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.

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.
ask basic close phrase reading speaking
Every day I try to ask him a new phrase in Japanese. Like, 'What are you doing tomorrow?' or, 'How are you?' I'm not even close to ever speaking it or reading it fluently. But I know some basic phrases.

That was a sloppy inning. Take it away, and maybe we win.
That was the only thing I did well.

That was no doubt the biggest moment of the game. I was so happy to see him get out of that.
ball keeping trouble
I was having a little trouble keeping the ball down to Andruw Jones.
