Since that guy from L.A. (Oscar Robles) hit that pitch that bounced (earlier this month off Rob Tejeda), nothing surprises me anymore.

I had better command of my pitches than I've had, ... and I felt as good as I've ever felt.

We had maybe a little flooding in the backyard.

You'll run across games like that that you will lose. You just have to move on. I could tell from the first inning that guys were pumped.

It's always exciting to pitch in games like this.

It was enough. It's always exciting to pitch in games like this. I'm just trying to make the most of it. The bottom line is we won.
