- Hard
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I was 11 years old and have the same curveball I have now. So I was literally striking everybody out. I always threw hard, and I was bigger than all the kids, so I would throw hard and throw that curveball, and no one could hit me.
- Big Leagues
- |
- Nov 07, 2020

I was a thrower. I think I'm more of a pitcher now.
- Good

- Nov 07, 2020
When you don't have one that you throw for strikes - they are good hitters - they can cancel out one pitch and go to another. Now I have four pitches. If one's not working, I've got three others. It makes the game totally different.

I've got four pitches now. I don't have to use them all the time, but I've got them in my pocket now for when it's necessary.
- End Of The Day

At the end of the day, it's me versus you, and I'm trying to get you out. If I can throw you six curveballs in a row and get you out, I'm going to do it all day.
- Long

I don't mind walking guys as long as I don't give up runs.
