good hit less location percent
Location was everything and I wasn't in the right location. I probably hit less than 50 percent of my spots. I wasn't very good today, at all.
chance edgar mistake ninety percent pick save turn
Ninety percent of the time, Edgar is going to turn that over. That's part of the game. I had a chance to pick up his mistake and save a win.
accept either game good hit less maybe percent threw throw today
I probably hit less than 50 percent of my spots. I wasn't good today at all. You've got to accept that. That's part of the game right there. Either you're on or you're off. Today was off. They hit me. They know I throw strikes. Maybe I threw too many.
fastball field guy hit left middle trying
I was trying to go fastball down and away. You don't want the guy to hit the ball to left field with power, and he's got some power. Dougie set up down and away. The ball was middle up, and he just tomahawked it.

I was going fastball away and just overthrew it a little bit. It kind of rode back closer to the plate than I wanted.

ball bit great hitting
It was a back-and-forth battle. They have a great team. They're hitting the ball well. We just hit the ball a little bit better.
becomes breath deep lead magic next number until
It's not any different until we get a significant lead and it becomes different when our magic number is zero. Then it becomes different. Then you can take a deep breath and concentrate on the next step.
bridge change easy losing pitcher relief season talented
It won't really change anything I do. I was just kind of the bridge to the end of the season anyway. But it won't be easy losing a talented relief pitcher like that.
