I had good stuff from the bullpen going into the game. The ball stayed up for Stairs, and from there it was a battle to keep the team in the game the rest of the way. You hate to put your team in a deficit right away. Manny got us back in the game, and it was my job to keep us there.
I felt good. I got some work in and got my pitch count up a little higher than I did last time. I think Josh Bard did a great job back there.
He did a good job today back there. First time getting in the game is a totally different animal than catching on the side. I thought he did a really good job back there today.
Probably the best knuckleball I threw all day. It got away from Josh. It's the nature of the beast sometimes. But I thought Josh did a great job back there.
All three of them have done a great job of catching me. I don't have a preference of who I throw to.
You just try and focus on the next hitter and try and get an out. The fourth inning was horrible for me. But our offense did a tremendous job of picking me up.
