What's amazing is it happened so fast. Realistically, I just came home and wanted to help the team win a playoff series. That's really what the goal was. Then Roger signed.

I want to help this team take that step to get into a World Series, ... For the organization and for the city, it's extremely important to me.
Like I've said before over and over, there's nothing worse than getting paid to do something and you don't feel like you're doing your job.
They've got some horses over there, and it's no different than us. It's going to be a battle. It's going to be a tough series.
It's a lot of pressure in these games. Really for me, the hardest thing was that I couldn't pitch going through that mentally, wishing that some of that could have been on me.
I felt good. I stayed within myself. 'Bigg' hit the big home run.
There's been several times that I thought this would be my last start, but we've been able to get through it, ... Nothing ever where I didn't think I'd be able to pitch, but just, man, I might need to give it a few, give it a start or two. I had to confide in the trainers and confide in the doctors when they'd say, 'We think you're good to go,' and, 'Keep working through it.' .
I wish I could have been there to help out as far as pitching.
