Oh. Hey, Lance. Get called up?
It`s just those last three outs. Hitters are going to bear down a little more on those last three outs.
I don`t like seeing guys who`ve never done anything in this game acting like they`ve been around and been All-Stars. I`m talking about guys with 30 career home runs who go pimping around the bases when they hit a home run like they`re Barry Bonds or something. I don`t like seeing that.
I`ve been trying to get my legs under me, and I feel good now.
Where I come from is not very big, so everywhere I go is someplace bigger.
My back foot slipped off the back of the rubber, and once my feet gave way, I started to throw the pitch anyway, and my mind said, change real quick, don`t lob one up there and let the guy hit it out, ... I went ahead and took that one on the chin.
I think we corrected two of them, ... Two of them were borderline.
I thought it was a key situation of the game, especially 2-1, ... That, and two innings before, when they had guys on, could have blew it wide open with a base hit and I was able to make a quality pitch at the time needed.
It`s probably the worst game I ever threw, that I could remember. It was a bad game all the way around - walking people, not throwing the ball where I wanted to, getting behind guys - it was one of those days. I was like a high school kid out there.
The way the game is now you can`t take care of business on the mound,
