bad executing good guess learn mistakes move pitch positive
I'm not going to feel that good and pitch that bad very often. ... I guess I can take that as a positive point. I made some mistakes that shouldn't happen. You learn from it and move on. It was all about executing pitches. I didn't.
ball guy hit respecting type whenever
I wanted to make a point. You look like a jackass whenever you hit the ball like that and you're pimping it, and you're out. I'm kind of about respecting the game, and I'm not the type of guy to not say anything.
correct deal definitely hard home learn whatever
There's got to be some kind of deal you learn from this. I'm definitely going to go home and think hard about it and try to correct whatever it was.
losing starting takes team together tough
It takes a while for a team to jell, and I think it's starting to come together now. It's really tough when you're losing and not doing well to jell like that.
besides guys pitchers scoring teams three top
It's about scoring runs. Pitching, your top three pitchers are going to be out there but besides that, they are going to be yanking guys pretty quick. All the teams will do this, Houston, Philly.
appreciate game playing
I'm playing the game right. I didn't appreciate that.
baseman hitting home
That was bull, hitting our first baseman after he hit a home run.
enjoy hit home shot steal sure week
He can't even give me a week to enjoy my home run. He has to hit to a shot in the upper deck. He sure can steal the show, can't he?
apart coming good guys hope start swallow team tear tough
That's the way we feel. We'll see how things play out. I hope they don't tear this team apart and we have to start all over. I know we have some good young guys coming up, but it would be tough for a lot of us to swallow if we have to start over.
remember threw
If I don't make it to the big leagues, nobody's going to remember I threw a no-hitter in Double-A.
innings last next pitches point spring threw
Last year, I threw so much in spring training, at this point I had 12 or 13 innings under my belt. It was ridiculous. I'm excited. I threw 60 pitches already, how many more do I have to have? Seventy-five or 80 in my next start, and from there I can go to 100, really.
deserve
He's a professional, and he doesn't deserve that.
easier experience guess means situation success time
I think experience means a little something, ... I guess being there in (crunch) time makes it not easier, but it makes it easier to look back on something and say, 'Hey, I've had success in this situation before.'
against bad believed execute guy luck needed pitches pitching six
I've always believed you make your own luck. I wouldn't say I had bad luck today. I just didn't execute pitches when I needed to. Pitching against a guy (Zambrano) like that, you can't give up six runs.
