awhile calm pressure since stay
I didn't put any pressure on myself. It had been awhile since I started, so I was more calm on the mound. That way I could stay there longer.
happy needed team won
I feel happy because I won, but more because the team won and we needed to win.
figure good hitters miss pitch players versus
It's my country, and there are good players on that team. They have good hitters and I have to figure out how I pitch to them. I can't miss at all versus those guys.
against bench circle full guy pitching weak
That lineup doesn't have any weak spots. The bench is full of stars. When you're pitching against them, you look at the on-deck circle and the guy there is even better than the one you're facing.
ball weak
I didn't have my control. The sinker was going too wide. I wanted to keep the ball down, so if they made contact, they keep the ball in the ballpark. That lineup doesn't have any weak spots.
good hit inside throw
He's a pretty good hitter. I'm not going to throw too much inside because I don't want to hit him. I'll try to make good pitches.
