He wants you to have that slow breaking ball of his in the back of your mind so he can sneak his fastball in on you. He pitched me tough. I might have swung at some bad pitches, but he gets the credit.
I couldn't pick up his fastball. I just had trouble with him.

I want to keep things simple and keep my energy focused on moving forward.
