Obviously I wish I had the pitch back. That's kind of the immediate feeling.

He hit a slider up in the zone. I knew it was gone. I wish I had the pitch back was the immediate feeling. It's tough. This will sting. I'm a closer. Tomorrow, I'll have to put it behind me. I've blown saves before.

Obviously, it was good for me to not have a high pitch count those two innings, but I really needed to throw, ... Garner knows at this point in the season I'm available to do whatever he needs. Because our setup guys have done such a great job this year, I haven't had to throw the eighth inning at all, and that's really spared me to this point.

Obviously, some of the names I'm up there with are great pitchers, ... Billy Wagner is a guy I strive to be like. Hopefully someday I can get to his level.

I was over it the next day. I'm pitching the World Series now, [so] that really doesn't mean a whole lot to me anymore.

It's been a few days, and now is a completely different situation. So I won't think about it.
