It's hard to not sit on a sinker that's coming at 99-100 [miles per hour],”“I was just trying to trust my plan and wait for my pitch, and I got it.”

As soon as I saw the first pitch, I just tried to slow everything down and see it close to me,”“I kind of chased the second slider, but I saw it closer and it was outside. I was just trying to slow my timing down and see it closer until he finally threw it [over the plate].”

We've got to stay together,”I think if we stay healthy, and we keep playing as a team, we can be really good.”
