The thing about Pedro is that even if he's a little bit gassed, he can make pitches for you, ... I had a feeling that against some of those young, inexperienced hitters, he'd be able to make a pitch, and he did.
again ball confidence early guy himself pitches
We need to get him going. That's why you go to a guy early in the season, so he can get his confidence going. He'll be all right. We'll just give him the ball again and he'll make some pitches and get himself going.
