texas one-day records
Any strikeout record worth having is in a Texas pitcher's pocket. I might come join them one day.
dad years eight
Pitching is pitching. I've been doing this since I was eight-years-old, playing in my backyard with my dad. The things that work in Double-A will also work in the majors.
want easy throwing
The thing about throwing a fastball is, you want it to be easy, you want it to be effortless.
guy balls wanted
I've definitely always wanted to be the guy they tell, 'Here's the ball. Go do it.'
running couple winning
I want to be that good. I want to be Barry Bonds. I want when I pitch to be 'Win Day.' I want my teammates to relax on the days I pitch because they know they only have to get us a couple of runs. I'm totally prepared for that.
games way bigs
I'm confident in myself, either way. I've pitched big games all my life.
sorry play games
I make too much money to play a game I love to ever feel sorry for myself.
