main matter sea win year
It's beautiful. It's great. They've got the sea of red, which is going to be there all year for us, and we were able to get a win out of it. That's our main goal, no matter what.
ball compensate days fall figure hip last moving night throwing totally tuesday year
It's ridiculous. It's not like last year when I had to compensate for my hip and my shoulder. Now I feel great, and now everything isn't the same. The ball is moving the way I want it to, but something mechanically is throwing me off. I need to figure that one thing out. I've got two days to do it. Then again, I may get out there Tuesday night and it may just fall into place because it's a totally different ballgame.

It's ridiculous, ... It's not like last year when I had to compensate for my hip and my shoulder. Now I feel great, and now everything isn't the same. The ball is moving the way I want it to, but something mechanically is throwing me off. I need to figure that one thing out. I've got two days to do it.

It's not really normal. But it's the playoffs.
hurt three throwing walk
It's three games. We may self-implode. We don't know what's going to happen. As of right now, we're going out there and throwing strikes. When you get hurt is when you walk people. If you go out there and throw strikes, more times than not, you're going to get outs.
last position weird
It is weird how we're back in the same position we were last year, but that's what makes it so much fun.
fun seems
It was fun to get out there again. When things are going bad, it seems like it snowballs, but things will be fine.
good perfect pitch press
You try to make the perfect pitch -- it doesn't always happen. You press a little bit, get booed and all of that good stuff. But that's just part of my job. You just have to keep going.
deal forget good mind pitcher shower
I know good and well what's going through his mind. But it's the playoffs. As a pitcher you just have to deal with it, take a shower and forget about it.
ball good hit people pitch stuff terrible
I know I've got good enough stuff to get people out. It's about making good pitches, and I haven't been able to do that yet. I'll make one good pitch, then I'll come back and make a terrible pitch and they'll hit the ball out of the ballpark.
again check gun hard pitch throw
I probably don't throw as hard as I once did. But then again I don't have to. I used to check the gun every pitch to see where I was. That was pretty much it: how hard I could throw it.
bad ball best double far ground mechanics
I had bad mechanics (against) the first two guys. I thought I could get in on him with my best pitch, get a ground ball and try to get a double play. I didn't get in there far enough.
bad best given home left people runs saying sure swings taking tank throw year
I give up one or two home runs a year and now I've given up two in the first week. They're not really taking any bad swings at what I throw up there. I'm sure people are saying I don't have anything left in the tank ... whatever. I feel like I've got enough to get people out. I just have to go out there and use it to the best of my ability.
pitch totally
If it's a one-run game, you pitch totally different.
