balls quick throwing top
I thought I was on top of my game. I was a little quick early, throwing the balls a little too down in the zone, but I was able to make the adjustments.
battle defense nights offense picked
My offense picked me up tonight, my defense picked me up tonight. You're going to have nights like that. You just battle through them.
job pay pitches zone
I was up in the zone and they made me pay for the pitches that I didn't get down. I didn't do my job tonight.
doubting start streak
When you go through a streak like that, you start doubting yourself.
shut true
You look out there, ... and there aren't too many true aces out there that are going to shut you down.
approach facing good guys happy hitters work
Those guys are pretty good hitters so you just have to approach it that way. I got my work in so I was happy about that. I was working just like I was facing the Orioles.

We still had, what, six outs left to go when Tony was tossed?
among delivery edge extra help last looks ourselves rhythm smooth spring start talk watching year
To me watching him, the rhythm of his delivery is a lot smoother and a lot better. We talk among ourselves about things. Anything to help us get that extra edge we try to find. It looks like his delivery is smooth and not as choppy as it was last year. His first spring start of this year was better than any start he had last year.
enjoy game help helps hitting win
I enjoy hitting and anything I can do to help win the game helps the team.
good innings overall third
For two innings I thought I did a pretty good job. I got a little fatigued in the third inning. They were out there swinging, but overall I thought it went pretty good.
balanced bullpen series
To get to the World Series and the NLCS, you have to have a balanced team. That's just not the rotation; it's the bullpen as well.
felt foot good hit sixth
I started off on the right foot and hit a little snag. I got back to it in the sixth and felt good overall.
game last might normal routine starting
They told me during last night's game that I might be starting today. I did my normal day before routine so I would be ready.
days mistakes today
Some days your mistakes are going to be hit, some days you're going to get away with them. Today wasn't one of those days.
