I try to compare what I see now to back then and work out his delivery to be the same. I see some velocity coming back. I see him make good pitches and some not-so-good pitches.

He was pushing his back foot up. When you push up, you go uphill. When you throw to the plate, you want to go downhill. Everything has started to click in his mind.

Sometimes he goes back to his old ways. Sometimes, maybe because the situation he's in trying to make the team, you put a lot of pressure on yourself and that doesn't click as quick as some other guys.

We had to work hard for this win. They'd score and then we'd score. They were passing the ball a lot, so we had to step it up a lot. We got a great game from our defense tonight.

This is terrible. Very disappointing. I've got to get back out there. There's so many things I have to work on.

In books, or work, or healthful play, Let my first years be past, That I may give for every day Some good account at last. - Isaac Watts,
