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.
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.
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.
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.
double pitch staying
The pitch that's staying with me is the double by Zaun. I had him.
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.
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.
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.
extremely
I'm extremely disappointed. I was terrible. I stunk.
again behind came defensive good great nixon people plays pole time today underrated understand
I had some great defensive plays behind me. I've said it time and time again, Trot Nixon is about as underrated an outfielder defensively as you can get. People don't understand how good he is, especially at Wrigley with the Pesky Pole and everything else. Once again he came up with a great play today that will probably get overlooked.
bad hit threw
It's disappointing. No excuses. I pitched bad. I threw bad pitches. They hit them.
deep extra games guys helps people playing time
Any time you can go deep into a game, especially when you're playing so many games in a row, it helps those guys out in the bullpen, ... Being that it's September, there are a lot of people who need the extra day's rest.
history hopefully resilient team
This team is pretty resilient, ... Their history is being pretty resilient and hopefully that will be the case.
