Francisco Liriano Quotations

I think I got a lot of progress. I had better control of everything. Just being able to throw my slider. How to pitch in a game. Pitching in different situations.

I am still working on my fastball now, and that's really all I want to focus on. Just locating my fastball is my goal right now.

I made a mistake, and I'm going to pay for it. I'm really sorry for what happened.

So far, relieving has been good for me. I'm getting used to it.

I want to show them I can be a starter. I feel ready to be a starter. But I'll do whatever they want me to do.

The first inning was kind of weird because I hadn't faced a batter since September, not even in batting practice. My slider wasn't very good.

I'm very excited about that, to represent my country.

I feel like I made a mistake and I'll pay for it. I'm responsible for what I did. I'm really sorry for what happened. I made a big mistake.

I always wanted to pitch for my country. It is a big deal (at home). With all of the guys with experience there, I can learn some things.
