You can never tell if you're going to have a good game like this. I felt like I was able to execute my pitches.

No. That's just one of those things about the game that's weird. One week you can not have it and the next week you come out and throw well.

I get stronger as the game goes on. I get more confident as the game goes on. I felt I was able to mix up my pitches and keep them off balance somewhat. After that first inning, I felt better on the mound.

We felt this was a really important game to get off to a good start. But we'll regroup.

I was getting them to hit the ball on the ground. Edwin picked me up, made about four or five good plays for me. Those plays come up key getting you out of an inning.

It would be an honor. This is the oldest franchise.
