fastball field guy hit left middle trying
I was trying to go fastball down and away. You don't want the guy to hit the ball to left field with power, and he's got some power. Dougie set up down and away. The ball was middle up, and he just tomahawked it.
affected bullpen storm year
It hasn't really affected us that much. We've had our own storm going on in the bullpen all year long, so nothing's different now.
achievement maybe nice
Maybe I'm not as old as I think I am. It's an accomplishment. It's a nice stat to have.
good hit less location percent
Location was everything and I wasn't in the right location. I probably hit less than 50 percent of my spots. I wasn't very good today, at all.
closer fastball plate rode
I was going fastball away and just overthrew it a little bit. It kind of rode back closer to the plate than I wanted.

We're pretty beat up and banged up. We've been going quite a bit. I'm sure the guys are going to relish a day off. Hopefully heal up and cool down mentally.

We're pretty beat up and banged. I'm sure the guys are going to relish the day off. It means a lot.

I admire what he does. He's a quality individual and a Hall of Fame pitcher.
dominating guy hitters ninth people stands works
He's a young guy who works hard. He's not just scraping by in the ninth inning. He's going out there and dominating hitters and people in the stands want to see that in a ninth-inning guy.
champion deep happened happens maybe seen tends win
What happened to us happens to every champion. We've seen it in basketball. We've seen it in football. We've seen it in boxing. You see it in every sport. Every champion tends to not necessarily relax, but I think maybe you win and you feel like you can take a deep breath.
