Fogg was great, and Zach backed it up with a stellar performance himself. It was nice to have those two guys come out and do what they did for us.

I knew that if I ever got here and got an opportunity, that I would be able to stick around and make an impression. It's nice for that to happen here.

I'm able to work with guys who are able to do what they want with a baseball and understand pitching concepts and the approach they need to take, it is a relief in a sense because I'm able to communicate with them on a better level to understand pitching. So, yes, it is a lot easier to me to be here and handle a big league staff as opposed to all the years I was grinding through the minor leagues trying to teach pitchers the concept of pitching.

He didn't get enough credit. Winning 14 games as a rookie is not bad.

I'm just trying to make solid contact right there, and I got a slider over the plate and put the barrel on it.

That's just one to throw away in the trash, pick it up tomorrow and play solid baseball.
