giving runs takes tough
This one's particularly tough just because giving up that many runs that early, it takes away from my hitters.
fastball good keeping means
That was a good sign. It means I'm keeping my fastball down. That's what I wanted to concentrate on doing.
good soft throwing
I was throwing a lot of soft stuff. I just embarrassed myself. It wasn't a good feeling.
remember
You know, I really don't remember what he said.
blame game guys knew possible team tough trying
It's tough with the sun. You can't blame that on anybody. I knew I just had to keep making pitches, keep trying to get outs, and just keep the team in the game as much as possible and let the guys come back, just like they did.
car good steer trying
It's not a good feeling, at all. It's like trying to steer a car one way and it won't go.
fun pitch runs scoring watch
It?s fun to watch and fun to pitch when (the offense) is scoring runs like that.

It was a tough sun. You couldn't blame anybody for that.
blame tough
It was a tough sun; you can't blame that on anybody.

You're going to face guys three and four times, and you need to have a plan each and every time, and not trying to stuff them every time.

happening stuff thinking
Stuff started happening pretty quick, and I wasn't thinking out there like I should have been. I was just out there throwing.
gorilla somebody win
Somebody said monkey, but gorilla is the right word. Hopefully, we go out there and win another one.
release
After a while, it's too much to handle. You've got to release some stuff. Or you just take it. That's what makes you stronger. I'm just going to go out there and be myself and give everything I've got.
