good pitching problem
Having a lot of pitching is usually a good problem to have because you're usually going to need it at some point.
coach expect pitching problem
I don't expect it to be a problem or anything that's an issue. I think (Nipper) kind of comes out of Wally's mold, in a way. To me, a pitching coach is more of a psychologist than a pitching coach.
balls control execute left maybe needed pitches plate strike supposed zone
Maybe it was control in the strike zone today, ... I left a lot of balls over the plate and they did what you are supposed to do with balls over the plate. I didn't execute the pitches the way I needed to, and they didn't let me off the hook.
double pitch staying
The pitch that's staying with me is the double by Zaun. I had him.
happen hope pitch works
Let's hope it works out where we don't have to even think about that. There's more combinations that can happen where I don't pitch Monday.
against chicago city cool cubs pitching
It's kind of cool going back to Chicago for the series, but it would be a little different if I were pitching against the Cubs at Wrigley (Field), ... (I'm) just going to a city that I'm really comfortable in.
execute needed pitches
I just didn't execute pitches the way I needed to and that's inexcusable.
great pitches pitching short
They made big pitches when they had to and Long made a great catch. We were a little short on pitching tonight.
chicago due eat far motivated pitching spot
I'm motivated because I'm pitching in a big game, ... The Chicago factor, with all due respect, doesn't faze me other than I know where I'm at, I'm in a comfortable spot as far as getting something to eat tonight.
battle ready worked
It was unfortunate the way it worked out but you've got to get ready to battle again.
clutch hits seen teams three win
I've been on teams for three years and I haven't seen as many clutch hits as he's had this year. If that's not enough to win the MVP, I don't know what is.
again time
Every time he's been in there he's pitched his butt off and he did it once again today.
definitely expected
Yeah, it's definitely not as loud. But I expected that.
health rotation starting
I think our starting rotation has a lot of potential. It just comes down to health.
