He's been able to get out of a jam but the next inning, that's it. He hasn't been able to build on that inning, gets a little sloppy and he falters.

It was something that I could sense was going to happen, ... and it's a shame, because we're both good baseball people and we think a lot alike, but there never was a very good union between Bell and me.
That's what it came down to. It looked like he hadn't pitched in awhile. So there you go.
And when a team is focused like that and you're off a little bit, that's when you get a crazy inning like that. I thought the second and third inning, he was able to right the ship a little bit.
The wins haven't picked up, but the quality of his stuff has been very good.
He was pitching against a team that was very focused and I thought they did a real good job of hitting the pitches where they were thrown. They didn't come out of their shoes on anything and kept a very, very solid base.
He had a pretty angle to all his pitches, although his command within the strike zone wasn't very good.
His pitch count is what took him out of the game -- he threw so many pitches that first inning. But, physically, he felt fine. I think I saw a 92 [mph] on the gun a couple of times, which is good. And, from a fundamental and mechanical standpoint, I thought he was fine.
