In actuality, there was casting for the show and it was pretty difficult.

Because the show is popular, people do recognize us on the streets.

Not to sound too much like Christopher Guest in 'Waiting for Guffman,' but on Thanksgiving you're putting on a show!

Every year, they're going to have a pretty potent lineup. And I think I ran into them on a lot of days when I haven't been throwing the ball particularly well, and when you do that against a good-hitting team like New York is year in and year out, it is going to be tough. Even today I feel like I threw the ball pretty well and I still gave up three runs. I mean it's just a tough club to really go out there and control.

I was a pretty difficult teenager.

My command was pretty terrible, obviously. I can't remember the last time I've hit three batters in one game, walked two guys on top of that and pitched behind in the count so much. None of that was good.
