One thing about this game: It's really frustrating. In hockey, if you team's losing, you can start a fight. You can get your frustrations out.

You have to be out there and have a mound presence. You have to be real aggressive and be real confident. You have to put the hitters on defense.

You want to be as dominant as possible and you want to put some doubt in the hitters' heads. That's what I'm trying to do every single time I'm on the mound.

It's the best feeling in the world . The game's on the line, and you're the guy in the spotlight.

I have good days and bad days, but they aren't much different.

I'm me on the mound. I like to show my emotion, be real aggressive and give everything I've got for one half inning. I don't have to act. What you see on the mound is what I am in real life.

I like it when every pitch counts. There are a lot of people who see it as a negative, but I try to feed off it.
