A mistake pitch. I wanted it down and in, something he'd have to chase.

The hits that they had weren't on good pitches.

I didn't put any extra pressure on myself or anything like that. I knew it was going to be a close game so I had to give my team the best chance that I could to stay in the ball game.

I didn't throw many strikes. That was the key to the game right there.

I really don't think about stuff like that. I just want to go out and pitch and do the best I can regardless of the situation. It's easier for me that way. I don't think about anything else when I'm out there.

I haven't really given it much thought, to be honest. I'm just trying to go out there and do what I can do. I'll let the rest take care of itself.

I just want to have the same kind of performance I did last week. I'll just stay aggressive and throw positive strikes. Strike one is the key.

It's been real tough. We've lost six in a row. This is no fun.

This is what I'm always trying to do. It's taken three games this year to do it, but I always try to be aggressive, pound the strike zone and use the eight other fielders.

That one wasn't bad. It was in on his hands, where I wanted it. But he's a good hitter.
