attack chalk challenge great positive strike zone
AT&T Park, chalk it up. This is a great pitcher's park, great weather. It's a great place to pitch. It's all positive and no negative. You can go out and challenge guys. I've got the confidence to attack the strike zone and not nibble so much.
backed great overwork point time workouts
I just kind of backed off it a little bit. They were great workouts for me, but I think there's a point in time where you can overwork something.
great heard
I heard so many great things about (Cox) before I got here,
game great guys played
It was an all-around effort. The guys played great baseball. We played the game right today.
great
I think it's going to be great having his personality around the team.
baseball games good great guy hit pitch
That's how baseball is, ... It's one of those games where I didn't pitch good enough and we didn't hit good enough. The young guy over there did a great job.
experience great heard thousand
I heard so many great things about him before I got here. To be able to experience it firsthand, it's a thousand times better than I could have ever expected.
adjustment feeling few fourth took
The first few innings, I just overthrew it. I made an adjustment about the fourth and started feeling pretty good. But I took too long to make the adjustment.
bend bending games picked sure win
They really picked me up. It was one of those games -- bend but don't break. I sure don't like bending that much though. But it was a big win for us.
nine stuff time win
If I have that same stuff nine times out of 10, I'm probably going to win nine of those games. This was just the one time where they got me.
dealing good last stuff supposed worried
I was dealing with a lot of stuff last year. The contract, a new team, new teammates, a new organization, a new baby. This year, I feel more like I'm supposed to. I'm not worried about making a good first impression. I just want to come in and be myself.
hate
He's aggressive, but not impatient. As a pitcher, you hate those kind of hitters.
effects means residual risk spill
In higher-risk or more pristine areas, a spill means clean-up is short-term and residual effects are much less.
delivery happy opening ready shape
I'm happy where I am right now. I'll be ready for Opening Day. I'm just here to get in shape and get my delivery down.
