That was something I've never done in my career. When I was getting ready to throw, I had the feeling something was about to go wrong. It wasn't a one-run game, so that made it easier for me to take.

It showed all the bad points I have. That was about the worst outcome I could imagine. My delivery was off and the pitches were bad.

This brings a lot of responsibility and a lot of pride. We wanted to show our baseball is at a top level. This makes us very happy.

I'm excited I had a chance to play on the best team ever. With the world championship on the line, I was really proud I did a good job.

Well, it was my first experience to pitch in the game with the world championship on the line. I was going to feel a lot of pressure, as this is something you wouldn't be able to buy. But I did not feel much of it once I got on the mound.

My pitches were starting to come along as the innings went by. I was trying to be too accurate on the corners at the beginning but I started not to worry about it too much as my pitches were going really well.
