bad ball days good hit maybe pitch pitches pop putting swings terrible
I make one good pitch then come back and make a terrible pitch and they hit the ball out of the ballpark. One of these days maybe they'll pop one up. But right now, they're putting good swings on the bad pitches I'm throwing.
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.
hitting people pitches swinging throw
I want to get in there as much as I can right now. I need to get people out; I need to throw pitches to people. I need to see how they're swinging at my pitches, and right now everything they're swinging at, they're hitting it pretty good.
game pitches
It's just about making pitches and I can't right now. I'm not making pitches. It's just something I have to get through, and keep working on, and keep doing in between games. It's just something I never went through before. That's why the game is so great. We just have to keep going. As of right now, it's just not going very well.
mind pitch ready realize time
That's just mind over matter, ... You have to go out there and realize what you're getting ready for. We've had this talk, me and Tony. Every time I go out there, I have to think I'm getting ready to pitch in the playoffs.
bad pitch wish
Just one bad pitch I wish I could get back, but I can't. It's just frustrating more than anything, but we'll be back out there.
pitch totally
If it's a one-run game, you pitch totally different.
bad cerebral degree mechanics pitching
He has a degree in psychology, so he's very cerebral about pitching and mechanics and things like that. He would make me think more than I usually did, which is sometimes bad for me.
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 hit pitch pops today
I made that one bad pitch today and he hit it out. If he pops it up, it's a different story.... If I make a better pitch, he doesn't hit it out of the infield.
And we'd better get it done quick, because it's only going to get more expensive.
biggest eight happen page turn worked
My biggest thing, he worked his butt off for eight innings, and I go out and give up the lead, not once, but twice. It doesn't happen often. I'll turn the page and go out tomorrow. Tonight's over.
