pressure took
It took a lot of pressure off, certainly.
couple good needed threw throw tough worked
I threw a lot of strikes. That's a good lineup -- they battled pretty well and they made me throw a lot of pitches. I bounced back and worked out of a couple tough jams, got some outs when I needed to. I'll take those things out of it.
defense excellent four
The defense has been excellent in all four games.
bit felt hits mixing pitches three throwing
After the first inning, with the three hits bunched together, I felt pretty good. I was mixing my pitches a little bit better, throwing strikes,
against fairly game kindness run settle thinking throwing
I was kind of thinking I just have to settle down, keep throwing strikes, just because of a run in the first inning I can't come out of the game plan. I feel like I've executed fairly well against them.
along easy guys problem
I think it's been great. No problem at all. All the guys are really easy to get along with. I kind of slid right in.
early few game gave home hurt roll runs starts today
I think today kind of typified (his season). Not great, runs early in the game hurt me all year, gave up some today. Home runs have hurt me all year, that's how they scored two of their runs. There are times I got on a roll but never for more than a few starts in a row. That's probably the most frustrating part.
good hitting hot job matter middle pitches threw
Some of the pitches I threw tonight, it doesn't matter if they were hot or not. Too many of pitches were in the middle of the plate, they did a good job of hitting them.
biggest double second situations walking
That and the double play in the second (after walking the first two batters) were the two biggest situations I had in the game,
biggest definitely earned eighth hole second situations walking
That and getting the double-play in the second inning were definitely the two biggest situations I had in the game. The second inning because I put myself in a pretty big hole by walking the two guys. But the eighth inning was what earned me the win.
both changed command controlled needed sides speeds zone
I just controlled both sides of the plate, changed speeds here and there, and expanded the zone when I needed to. Mostly, I just had better command tonight.
against biggest knew pitches position score stay tough work
I put myself in position to win. It doesn't always work out for you. The biggest thing to do is keep making my pitches to stay in there. I knew going in it would be tough to score against Kazmir.
anytime bit lets pressure relax takes
Anytime you put up that kind of number, it just lets everyone relax a little bit and just kind of play off the game. It takes a little bit of the pressure off, certainly.
beat couple fly problem run singles sorry
I have no problem being outduelled in a pitchers' battle. (Kazmir) was one run better than me today. There's not a whole lot to feel sorry for or disappointed about. A couple of singles and a sac fly scored a run. It's not too often that just that is going to beat you.
