great
It's great to be part if this. To get a milestone for him like that, that's amazing.
albert bottom coming couple guys ninth time trying
Any time we go into the ninth with the bottom of the lineup coming up, ... all we're trying to do is get a hit, get a walk, get a couple of guys on -- because we know: We've got to get Albert up there.
pitch totally
If it's a one-run game, you pitch totally different.
gets jumps kids rule teach
He jumps down and he gets in their face. That's like the No. 1 rule ever, you never teach your kids to jump down and get in your dog's face. He does it.
carpenter course front guys mark taking
Of course we're better off. We got Carpenter healthy, and we got Mark Mulder. I'm not taking anything away from the other guys, but those two guys at the front of the rotation? They're pretty good.
mechanics
I think I have my mechanics back in order. Things are going in the right direction. It doesn't look like it totally, but to me, they are.
biggest eight happen page turn worked
My biggest thing, he worked his butt off for eight innings, and I go out and give up the lead, not once, but twice. It doesn't happen often. I'll turn the page and go out tomorrow. Tonight's over.
hitting people pitches swinging throw
I want to get in there as much as I can right now. I need to get people out; I need to throw pitches to people. I need to see how they're swinging at my pitches, and right now everything they're swinging at, they're hitting it pretty good.
bad pitch wish
Just one bad pitch I wish I could get back, but I can't. It's just frustrating more than anything, but we'll be back out there.
calling home
As long as they keep calling down there, I'll keep going out there, and I'll give up another home run, I'm sure. That's just part of it.
mind pitch ready realize time
That's just mind over matter, ... You have to go out there and realize what you're getting ready for. We've had this talk, me and Tony. Every time I go out there, I have to think I'm getting ready to pitch in the playoffs.
deal forget good mind pitcher shower
I know good and well what's going through his mind. But it's the playoffs. As a pitcher you just have to deal with it, take a shower and forget about it.
bad good left people saying stuff sure swings taking throw
It's just things like that, and they're really not taking any bad swings at anything I throw up there. I'm sure people are saying I don't have anything left in the tank. Whatever. I know I still have good enough stuff to get people out.
fun seems
It was fun to get out there again. When things are going bad, it seems like it snowballs, but things will be fine.
