We're definitely upset about this game. It was a tough loss. But I should have done better. I should have thrown more strikes and put them on their heels and I didn't.
That was a tough loss. We're definitely beating ourselves up and there is not anything anybody can say that is harsher than what we're telling ourselves.
It definitely hurts, because I felt like I let my team down. I have to find a way to get outs late in the game, especially when they're making a charge.
I didn't do anything right. This is a game you tip your hat to the other team. ... I was definitely ready to go. There's no excuse. I feel bad whenever we lose, regardless of what uniform I'm wearing.
I didn't do anything right. It definitely hurts.
There are only 13 who have done it. It's definitely a hard feat, especially today where the power numbers are greater and the parks are smaller. To be able to be successful and win 20 is special.
I have a tough angle, man. I think of me on the mound. Sometimes, I don't even have the same arm slots. It's just little things, whatever it takes to get guys out. I definitely wouldn't want to hit off myself.
I did it twice in the bullpen, as well, ... It's funny. They still believed in me. I thought I was going to get released after that. I thought I was horrible. They definitely saw something that I didn't.
I can't fathom having this many wins. But today was definitely a team effort.
It's tough to lose any game. It's definitely frustrating to see this. We know the capability of our team, and we haven't hit it yet.
It's tough, man. It's definitely tough. I just didn't do anything right today.
It's big for our team because it gives them an extra day. We're definitely going to need them. I know about having days off. They can be helpful sometimes, especially late in the year. It's just key to go out there and establish early, especially in this park where they can put up some crooked numbers early.
It's definitely frustrating to see when you know the capability of our team. We just haven't hit it yet.
It's a great feeling. It's definitely a team effort. You have to have lot of things go your way. Today I was hit and that ended up being the winning run. I've been very fortunate to stay healthy and stay strong.
