I applaud him for going through it, but I think it probably had a little affect on him during the game, ... And that's one reason he didn't locate as well as he has been recently.

But we bounced back tonight and looked great.
control guy hit hour hurt last lights miles power throw throwing year
But when a guy can throw 97 miles an hour like he was last year and he's throwing it right to the corners, and he's got a power slider, that's going to hurt you. You can't hit that guy. That's why he was lights out last year. His control has not been there this year.

One of the nice things about picking up Preston Wilson is if it were to be that Jeff is not going to be there, then we certainly have depth, and that's one of the plusses. We have pieces that can move, and we've been blessed in this organization over the past few years of having guys that are flexible and can play different positions. We have catchers that can play first base, so we're OK.
ball basically bit couple exception home innings outing threw
I would say he threw pretty good. He's probably a little bit rusty, but still threw pretty good. The first couple innings he was sharp. With the exception of a couple home runs, I thought he threw the ball pretty good. It was basically his first outing of the spring.
days past struggled woods
I would have thought Berkman was out of the woods and would not go back in it. I'm disappointed he's struggled in the past 10 days or so.
