attack chalk challenge great positive strike zone
AT&T Park, chalk it up. This is a great pitcher's park, great weather. It's a great place to pitch. It's all positive and no negative. You can go out and challenge guys. I've got the confidence to attack the strike zone and not nibble so much.
bad head listening might pack
After the first game, listening to the commentators, you would have thought we might as well pack things up and head back to Atlanta. But I think we showed we're not too bad either.
believe listening might pitching takes
After the first game, listening to all the commentators, we might as well have packed things up. . . . I like our guys, too. We believe if our pitching takes off, we're going to be tough.
concern gas macho run strong
I've never been a big complete-game guy. My concern is how strong I am at the end of the year. I don't need to be macho and run out of gas at the end of the year.
afraid good three
I've been afraid to use it, but all of a sudden, there it was. I haven't had a good one in three years, but it was there today.
baseball doubles hit humorous left second turn whether
I usually hit doubles and homers, ... I didn't know whether I should turn left or right at second base.
behind everybody hit pitches start tough turn
It was tough day. I didn't make my pitches and when I did they hit them. It's been a tough start for everybody but we have to put it behind us and turn it around.
baseball games good great guy hit pitch
That's how baseball is, ... It's one of those games where I didn't pitch good enough and we didn't hit good enough. The young guy over there did a great job.
few leaving obviously performance rubber took
Obviously the performance wasn't too good. Just took me a little while to make the adjustments the first few innings. You know, I was just overthrowing, leaving the rubber a little too quick.
games playoff
Obviously, playoff baseball, the games are always close,
atlanta came close guys hat head heat loved obviously position putting respect rooting seen spectator taken themselves tie tip
Obviously I would have loved to have seen us close it out and head to Atlanta with a 'W,' but they battled and got themselves into position to tie it up, ... After that, I was a spectator in here rooting guys on. You've got to tip your hat to all our guys in the bullpen. They've taken a lot of heat all year. Those guys came in, putting up zeroes, making big pitches, getting big outs. Going 18 innings, I have a lot of respect for those guys. They went out and battled, but they just outlasted us.
advantage ball coming fifth obviously pitches threw took zone
Obviously coming out in the fifth inning is not what you want. I threw the ball alright. i got some pitches up in the zone and they took advantage of it.
anybody christ constant faith jesus knowing played sports steadily walk
It's been one of those things where anybody that's played a sport at the professional level, there's always a lot of challenges. And the one thing that's always been a constant for me is Jesus Christ and my faith - and just knowing that my walk with Christ is steadily going up.
brings guys movement
It's the youth movement we have. A lot of young guys with a lot of passion. It brings the fun back to the game.
