The shape of his stuff was the big thing. I wasn't concerned about strikeouts, because there weren't many balls hit on the fat of the bat. That's the key with Randy.

You get to the big leagues, and you think, 'Can I do this stuff?' Then you take the first pitch down the middle for Strike 1, and you think, 'I could have hit that.'

It's disappointing. I think the final score doesn't indicate what kind of game it was. Both sides, balls hit good, good plays, weird plays.

He does things that drive hitters nuts. I've never seen a pitcher get so many ground balls back to the mound. That's all about movement.

I don't want to say he's concerned, but he wasn't pleased. Not angry, don't get me wrong. We had a nice conversation. I put (myself) on the line and said, 'We're going to be fine.' I hope that's the case.

That goes with the territory, ... I've never been concerned about managing to save my job. I always manage to try to win. And anytime I start thinking that, I have to do this or if I do this it doesn't look as good if I do this, I can't do that.
