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

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

When you build relationships, you get to share your beliefs. It gives you the opportunity to share your faith with other people.

Hitters get paid a lot of money to hit. Let's face it, man, sometimes they just do.

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.

You know how you just don't like guys on the other team sometimes? It's funny because growing up I loved Roger (Clemens), loved to watch Roger pitch. Then when I was first in the big leagues and he was for the other team, I hated him.

I was throwing a lot harder than I ever have at the end of last year. I got to ninety-five (mph) a couple of times in the World Series and I'm more of an eighty-eight or eighty-nine guy who relies on location and movement.
