Eddie threw more pitches in that inning than he did all spring training.

Hernandez left two pitches up in the zone, and that turned out to be the difference in the game.
amazing balls guys happens hitter pitching strikes threw throwing
I didn't like it that our guys threw so many balls. They were all throwing strikes pitching in the bullpen. It is amazing what happens when you put a hitter at the plate.
angels good hit hurt lapse pitching played sixth team
I thought our pitching was pretty good today. The Angels have a good team but we pitched well, hit pretty well and defensively played well. That one lapse in the sixth inning hurt us, obviously.
borne die last night pitching three truism white
The old truism that you live and die with your pitching has been borne out the last two nights, and really the whole series. We got two really well pitched games, which we won, and (Tuesday) night was something I'd like to forget. We'll take it. If you take two out of three from the White Sox, that's pretty special.
drive gets hit pitch
He's not going to hit 30 or 35 homers, but when he gets his pitch he can hit it out. He can drive the ball.
ball extremely good pitch threw velocity
His velocity was good from the first pitch on. Joel threw the ball extremely well.
chances continues late pitch pitching safe sorry stays throw
He was disappointed. If he continues to pitch the way he's pitching now and stays healthy, he's going to have a lot of chances to throw shutouts. I think this late in the season, better safe than sorry is the way to go.
continues pitch plenty throw
If he continues to pitch the way he did, then he'll have plenty of opportunities to throw shutouts.
game hit pitching staff sticks time
Absolutely. He handles the pitching staff very well. He has an idea out there and sticks with a game plan. We'd like to see him hit more, but there's time for that.
chance dugout good kid pitches sitting wondering
The kid had good stuff. I was sitting in the dugout wondering how many pitches to give him for a chance at his no-no. I was in a quandary. I probably would have let him go to 130 pitches, but we'll never know.
options soon ways
It's too soon to say A, B, C and D are going to happen. We have different options and different ways to go.
chunk took
It took a chunk out of the back of his finger.
guns people problem rather swinging swung walks wonder
After the walks some people will wonder why Carl swung at the first pitch, but I didn't have a problem with it. We had one of our big guns at the plate. I'd rather have him swinging there.
