hung trouble
He was in trouble but he hung in there.
mistakes pay
He wasn't real sharp. But they have a good-hitting club. They make you pay if you make mistakes and that's what it was.
ball guy help sharp team tip
He wasn't his sharp shelf, but I tip my hat. The guy wanted to take the ball to help the team out,
mets rid
He was outstanding. I still don't know why the Mets got rid of him.
guy hit nobody
He was on. Nobody was going to hit that guy tonight.
exam looking react
He was pretty placid during the whole exam. He didn't even react to the injection. You can see in the exam picture, he's not even looking back to see what's going on.
behind beyond good pitching threw
He was dynamite, he had it all. His fastball, he threw a good breaking-ball, then his change-up. He threw from behind in the count. He's pitching beyond his age, that's for sure.
zone
He was in command. He was down in the zone all night.

cares dies great guys last lives ought throw tough
He's pitched great for us the last two years, so he ought to be able to throw with confidence. But it's a tough business. He's one of those guys that lives and dies with his outings because he cares so much.
september wants worth
He wants to pitch, but you know it's not worth it. You've got to look at the big picture. If this was September and we're in the thing . . .
