change definitely excellence game guys longer maintain period smarter
I think there's definitely something to having guys around who have been there before, who can tell you how to change your game to keep up and maintain excellence over a period of time. I mean, it's pretty obvious: the longer you play, the smarter you get.
deal definitely great played
He's been here for so long, it's definitely going to have an effect, ... I thought he did a great job. I've played long enough where these things do happen, so you have to be professional and deal with new people.
bright definitely drawn last scenarios tend year
I tend to look on the bright side. It could be worse. It was definitely frustrating for me last year. I could have drawn up different scenarios for my first year in New York.
definitely far felt forward happened hurt looking thinking time work
I'm definitely looking forward to it, ... It's been a long time down here. After everything that happened as far as thinking that it could be over for me when I hurt it and how it felt ... to work to get back again, it's exciting.
deal definitely odd
I don't look at anything as 'Why me?' or anything like that. It's definitely odd but it happens. What are you going to do about it? You've got to deal with it.
balls definitely keeps
A bat, two balls -- I don't know. When it keeps happening, it's definitely frustrating.
definitely drew last scenarios year
It was definitely frustrating for me last year. I could've drew up different scenarios for my first year in New York, but it's just what happens.
definitely throwing totally
I'm still working to feel totally comfortable with it. But it's definitely better than what I was throwing before.
above bat broken cover definitely path pitchers situation took
Pitchers don't get hit, really, that often, especially above the chest. A broken bat is a situation where I have to cover first base, and that took me right into the path of the bat. It's definitely odd, but it happens. What are you going to do?
coming definitely faith guys hard next putting setbacks signing trust work year
It?s tough, but you have to look to next year because there?s nothing else right now, it?s over right now. Coming in after signing over here, guys putting faith and trust in you, you work hard to do your job. Setbacks like that are definitely part of the game, but it?s also tough.
expected last mean stuff today
I think we expected it to be a little tighter today than it was last night. That's usually what happens, stuff tightens up overnight. But that doesn't necessarily mean anything.
catch headed playing
Playing catch for the first day, I didn't really feel it at all. I think I'm headed in the right direction.
felt good pitches struggled
I struggled in the first, but I made some pitches when I had to, ... I felt good out there. I felt a flow, I was getting in a rhythm.
played
I thought it was a big game. With the way they've played us, to come in here and get the first one in the series, that's a big win.
