fine instead realized settling trying
I don't think it was necessarily jitters, ... I was just trying to be too fine in the first inning instead of going after the hitters. After I realized that, that's when things started settling down.
rough settling trying
I had a rough first inning. I don't think it was jitters. I was just trying to be too fine, but then I started settling down.

best early fool good guys learned lesson pitch pitches totally
If I get that out, I think it's a totally different inning. My best pitch is my fastball. I don't need to fool guys with off-speed pitches ---- just go after them. It's a good lesson learned early in the season.
decided ended trust
I decided to trust my stuff, and it ended up working out.
ask guys hearts nice played
I am, absolutely. It would have been nice if we'd have come out with a win. The guys played their hearts out. That's all you can ask for.
behind far quite stamina work
I'm not quite where I want to be. We still have a lot of work to do, a lot of conditioning. I feel that I am a little behind as far as stamina and stuff, but I think we're in the right direction.
