capable continuing extend four good help nights pitching three
It was just not his night. Three out of four nights ... I'm not going to extend him there. He wasn't pitching as good as he's capable of. He's scuffling. There's no sense in him continuing to scuffle if I can help it.
drive five hit kenny line pitching until
Kenny was pitching well until he got hit by that line drive and he battled his way through five innings.
chance five good innings kevin pitches took tribute
Kevin made good pitches when he had to, but it took a lot out of him. It was a tribute to him that he was able to get through it for five innings and give us a chance there.
pitching unlike year
From a pitching standpoint, I'd like to see him get down there and get back on the horse, see him getting the ball. It's been unlike any year he has ever had in professional baseball. He's had to make a lot of decisions.
good hit kenny pitches seen
Kenny was effective. They've seen Kenny so much. They hit some good pitches for hits. He bent, but he didn't break.
outing pitcher second sees time
The second time a young pitcher sees the same team, that's what made today's outing even more impressive. They have some idea of what you're going to do out there.
days eighteen hate innings pitching staff survive
As a team, you just try to survive them because you hate what it does to your pitching staff a lot of times. Eighteen innings in a day with no off days around it are tough.
pitch point sixth
He had a blister that was heating up in the sixth inning. Hopefully, he'll get to the point where he can go another inning, but between the blister and his pitch count, we wanted to be careful.
help justin pitching
Justin will be in our bullpen. He's been pitching well and I told him that he's up here because we think he can help us.
along hitters mistakes pitches pitching
He was cruising along and pitching really well. He just made some mistakes with pitches and the hitters hit them.
great obviously pitcher ran top
The big thing was Curt Schilling, he was obviously on top of his game. We ran into a great pitcher today. It's disappointing.
along arm building count moved pitch process work
He got his work in and his pitch count up. He moved along the process of building arm strength.
adam few pitches
Adam pitched well all considered. He just let a few pitches get away.
fresh game gives guys leave might paid pitches rotation somebody stayed taking wonder
He's managed his rotation and especially his relievers beautifully. You never see him leave guys out there too long or use them too often. You might wonder why he's taking somebody out after 10 pitches of a 9-0 game in June, but it's paid off. His guys have stayed fresh. He gives guys fresh innings.
