It's pretty impressive to come in like that and do what he does. One swing of the bat with him up there can change the game.

I just got too many breaking balls up. It's kind of tough. It's a pitch I need to keep working on, but I don't want it to keep beating me.

I thought it was going to be right at him at first, then I turned and it was going toward the gap. He came out of nowhere and made a Superman catch. It could have been the turning point of the game if that ball got down.

It's amazing that someone could be out in front like that and still hit it as far as he does.

I was missing pitches after the third inning and I don't have the velocity to miss.

As long as we keep winning, we can put ourselves in a good situation. Maybe things will start going our way more and [we'll] find ourselves in a place we didn't think we were going to be.

I got behind a couple guys and I made some high pitches. I've got to do a better job keeping the ball down.

It seems like when I do well at the plate I do well on the mound, also. I guess one comes with the other.

I was never under the impression it would be handed to me, so I know I have to work for it regardless. It'll be better anyway having some competition -- it gets you going.
