There's a chance we'll meet again. If it does happen, it'll be a shootout.
I told him already that it's June. I think he felt relaxed hearing that.
It's tough to explain. You can mention a lot of things, and I can't discount any of them.
It's nothing unusual that pitchers and catchers from time to time have issues. It's the emotion that goes along with playing this game.
