Quotables
They scored two-out runs on us this whole series. They're very good at it, they have been.
I knew he wanted to stay in the game and I thought he earned that. I gave him a chance to shut them down and chance to get the win, but he gave up the hit and it didn't work out.
I've got to make better pitches in that situation. That's just the way it is. I was trying to go in. It was down, just down the middle. That's what he's trying to do, He's diving a little bit just trying to hit the ball the other way. In that situation he's trying to get back on track and you make a better pitch and it's a different situation.
