One of the nicest satisfactions you can have is to be able to give something back to your parents when they've given so much to you.

If you can get an out on one pitch, take it. Let the strikeouts come on the outstanding pitches. Winning is the big thing. If you throw a lot of pitches, before you know it, your arm is gone.

You got the ball in your hands and you're in command, and if you get your good pitch where you want it, nobody's gonna hit you.
