gave mean opportunity thank true
The Oakland A's, I loved all my teammates there. I loved all the coaches. They gave me the opportunity to play in the big leagues. And for that, I thank them. I mean it was a dream come true for me.
believe braves cheer close encourage fans field goes players rough turn
Braves fans are one-of-a-kind. Your passion to win comes close to equaling that of the players that go out on the field each and every game. But when the team goes through rough patches, you're there to encourage and cheer and believe that things will turn around.
atlanta braves children crazy life thankful upbringing
The Atlanta Braves are really all that our children know about this crazy baseball life, and we are so thankful for this upbringing for them.
fall figured gold pitching ring smart start turns wife work
I figured my wife was about to start law school. If that whole baseball pitching thing didn't work out, I had something to fall back on. I figure I'd put a ring on her finger. Turns out she was the smart one. Turns out she was the gold digger, not me.
people pet tardiness word
I hate when people don't keep their word or they are late. Tardiness is a big pet peeve of mine.
styles
There's more than one way to do things. There's always different points of views and styles of pitching.
bad joke main
I have some bad feet. But really, my main fault would probably be my personality. A lot of times, I am not serious enough. I joke around too much sometimes.
cooler eighth gotten guys likes manager matter people pitching preached seventh stud swing
You feel like a stud out there when people swing and miss. As I've gotten older, I've preached to our young guys that strikeouts are sexy, but outs are outs, man, no matter how you get them. It's a lot cooler for me pitching in the seventh or eighth inning than it is going 5 1/3. Your manager likes it a lot more, too.
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.
five hitting pitchers plays stomach
He's probably one of the better hitting pitchers out there. But he's still a pitcher. He plays only once every five days. It would have been better if it was a cleanup hitter. Then I'd be able to stomach it a little better.
coming left turn
I didn't know if I should turn right or left coming into second.
five hold runs won
I didn't hold up my end of the bargain. We scored five runs today. We should have won the ballgame.

maybe pull throw
I'll have to pull something out of my hat. Maybe I'll throw lefty.
