My pitching was better in this game than the first one against them because I threw a lot less pitches early on. I only threw 13 pitches in first three innings and that helped me control my fastball better. I got a lot of grounders.

I've been on varsity for three years and I've never experienced what it feels like to beat Linden. This is the year.

I was just on my game today. I've been pitching pretty well lately, but hitting had been slow, and now it has finally come around.

I don't know what constitutes the proper pedigree. I'll have to ask the guys in the clubhouse. But, as far as deeds go, he has had as much impact on the game as anybody in the Hall of Fame. It's not just about wins, but excellence. If it were just about wins, 95 percent of the people in the Hall wouldn't be there.

I don't know which parking lot Fred slept in last night.

This is the place for me.
