I was in good control of my body, and I kept my head still.

Later, I could take something off my slider and I could make my fastball sink, so I really had four pitches.

I also think that I had great mechanics.

I can't recall too much about pitching, but I do remember that I was anxious to get it over with. I just wanted to get that first game over with and go from there.

But more important than personal awards is winning the World Series. That's the max that anyone could ask for. Let alone to have the ball in your in your glove for the final out of the World Series. That was the ultimate.

I always had the attitude that I wanted to throw a no-hitter every game.

But through experience I learned to control my body and locate the ball.
