What has benefited me the most is learning I can't control what happens outside of my pitching.

I don't care if we're out of it or not, if I've got a chance to pitch, I want to.

I take golf trips with my brother or with friends. We usually go to Pebble or Bandon Dunes. One year we went to Hawaii.

I don't believe for one second that the eye surgery has helped me on the mound

There are a lot of shots in golf I can't hit, but I try to hit them anyway. The frustration is not there, because I'm still learning. But I really know how to do this. I'm not just hoping to get it where I want it... Let the other guys do it half-assed.

The dirt was OK, but once you hit the grass... Wet grass is slippery

I daydream just like everybody else. I just do it with my body facing the field, so everybody thinks I'm paying attention.
