extra forward opening pitch possibly privilege year
Every year that I'm here it's an honor. To possibly pitch opening day, without a doubt, is an extra privilege and it's something I look forward to.
air beat four gave good kept pitchers shot solo
That's a good lineup over there. At 1-0, you really don't think a solo shot is going to beat you. But it was enough tonight. All four of their pitchers pitched great, kept us down and never gave us any air to get any runs.
approaches difficult guys kinds pitch
Guys with those kinds of approaches are very difficult to pitch to.
capable focused outside pitches
I really try not to get focused in on all the other outside distractions. I just try to do what I'm capable of doing, make the pitches I'm capable of making and do it at the right time.
god knew pitch throw worse
I don't think there's a worse 0-2 pitch I could throw in my life. God it was bad. I think before I even let it go, I knew it wasn't where I wanted it to be. It was terrible.
good motivated pitch
I'm motivated to come here and pitch well. I wasn't as good as the other day. ... But I pitched well enough to keep them off balance.
change itself lends locate pitcher type
The type of pitcher I am now, it lends itself to being consistent. I do know how to locate (and) I do know how to pitch and change speeds.
love oh shadows sun town wall
The shadows on the wall tell me the sun is going down, Oh Ruby, don't take your love to town
audience dropped energy enjoy kids mix older people
The skew of the audience has probably dropped 10 years, ... Older people don't have the spontaneity and the energy. You mix in 15-percent young kids and the older people enjoy the show more.
decent inside
You always want to second-guess yourself to a point. I think it was a decent pitch. I would like to have it a little more inside and not give up a hit.
balls beat good gotten ground knew liked loved stuff wanting
I wasn't very good in getting the ground balls I would have liked to have gotten today. Yeah, there's a lot of stuff going on. I would have loved to have done better without a doubt, Just like they wanted to beat me, they knew I was wanting to beat them, too.
anyone chance dreamed far fortunate guy leagues liking major minor people ways
My career's pretty much a major fluke. I probably wasn't the guy that was expected, or should have been in the big leagues or even the minor leagues when I first started. I was very fortunate in a lot of ways having people take a liking or just a chance on me. I've benefited by far more than anyone could have ever dreamed of.
ball doubt easy forget great ground hit shift
I thought it was an easy ground ball because I forget we had that big shift on. That's without a doubt the softest he's ever going to hit a ground ball off me, but Carlos made a great play.
help
I'm here to help them in any way. They can't do anything that I haven't done on the mound.
