When I take the mound in Yankee Stadium I feel like my stuff is going to be better than ever.

He (Tommy Pettitte [father] coached me as kid. He bought all the books and videos and tried to learn as much about pitching as he could. But once I was in high school, he never tried to be my coach.

Over my career, I think I've shown can make a big pitch.

I feel like I should go out there and throw a shutout every time I pitch. If we score one [run] and I give up two, then I didn't do my job as far as I'm concerned.

It kills me when I make a bad pitch...I want to be perfect out there.

If you put the ball in the right place, you don't have to throw hard.

Whenever someone has the ability to impact people's lives, I think that's one of the greatest things that God gives us as individuals.
