ball edge kept likes pitches
Sanchez kept us on the edge of our seats. He made pitches when he had to. He likes the ball every day.
five last notion pitch pitches seven time
We went in with the notion of not having him pitch more than five or seven and 80-something pitches or whatever. He went 120 last time out. He's been really banged up.
against bit feeling pitches
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.
easy execute far five focused game pitchers pitches stay tired wrapped
That's very important. I like my pitchers to stay focused and execute pitches and not get wrapped up in the score, but that's not very easy to do. Jae got a little tired at the end. We had some long innings, but he did keep us in the game as far as getting throught the first five pretty easily.
pitches totally track
Listen, when he pitches if I don't see what I like to see I'm not going to be totally patient. You go by your track record.
overall pitches
When you don't get calls, then you don't pitches where you want them to be. But overall he pitched pretty well.
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.
amount certain closer loop medical pitches reports taking
Everyone pitches with a certain amount of discomfort. We have medical reports every day and Loop never said anything about not taking the ball. He was my closer and he said he was fine.
definitely gets pitches strike work
It?s kind of a double-edged sword. You definitely want to be aggressive. but if you take pitches then he gets strike one on you; then he can go to work on you.
ball jason pitches threw
Tommy threw the ball well again, but Jason Schmidt pitched well, too. He made the pitches when he had to.
anytime bad broke game gotten hell home loose obviously pitcher pitches quick wrong
Today, obviously it's pretty much bad game management. Anytime you give up 0-2 home runs, that's not what you want to do. We had that quick 1-2-3 pitcher and then all hell broke loose in that one inning where he should have gotten out of that real easy. He just made bad pitches at the wrong time.
attack fastball good pitches saw sneaky
I saw him on TV. He's got a good curve, a sneaky fastball and he pitches inside. I was impressed. But we're going to attack him. You don't give him too much respect. He's a young player, and you've got to attack him. You don't let him get too comfortable.
beat good pitches seemed total
He seemed to make good pitches when he had to. He seemed like he was not really on his total game, but he was good enough to beat us.
bottom erratic gathering himself line pitches seen
He was effectively erratic I guess. That was probably the most erratic we've seen him in a while. But the bottom line is he made pitches when he had to make them. Sometimes he may get out of sync, but he has a way of gathering himself when he has to.
