It's just pitching, man. I'm just pitching. I'm getting ready to pitch in five more days.
I took some time to reflect back on my experiences here because I guess you're going to blow it up once the season is over. Great fans, and all that. I'm sure they'll be the same fans just a block down the road or whatever.
The outcome of the game is something that, as a starting pitcher, is very hard to control. Just worry about making pitches. And leave it at that.
I know I don't throw very hard anymore, but I'd like to think I can still hurt a guy who's not looking.
If they want me I'd love to come back. I'm not going to play because I can, I'm going to play because I deserve it.
We'll see. I enjoy coming to the ballpark every day. It's a good life. Mentally I don't want to give it up.
Hopefully, the same as the 30s. We'll see. I don't know -- I've never been 40 before.
He was trying to change it up a little bit, give me a breather.
I never mind looking like the dork or the geek or whatever, or the accountant or all that. It didn't bother me one bit. It's a lot hassle-free now. I have no hassles with my eyes other than the normal stuff. Maybe the sun is too bright.
They hit my mistakes well. I made plenty of them today and they took full advantage.
My stuff was all right, but it's not about pitching good. It's about winning. I pitched just good enough to lose.
I take golf trips with my brother or with friends. We usually go to Pebble or Bandon Dunes. One year we went to Hawaii.
I don't care if we're out of it or not, if I've got a chance to pitch, I want to.
I look forward to another good year next year. It would be nice to win, too.
