My pitch count as a general rule was 135. And I knew how many pitches I had when I went to the mound for the last three innings.

If he throws 100 pitches, he's got to pitch five innings.

The good rising fastball is the best pitch in baseball.

A guy threw [95] pitches in four innings and we still only had three runs to show for it. I think when that happens and they get their bullpen in, you start wondering what it's going to be like at the end. That's a natural thought, I think, for anybody sitting in that situation. We just didn't get the one hit to break it open.

It was great to see Adam out on the mound competing for nine innings. His pitch count was low and the defense made some big time plays [behind him].

Obviously, it was good for me to not have a high pitch count those two innings, but I really needed to throw, ... Garner knows at this point in the season I'm available to do whatever he needs. Because our setup guys have done such a great job this year, I haven't had to throw the eighth inning at all, and that's really spared me to this point.
