Work ethic has always been stressed in my family. My dad is going to be 80 years old and he still works part time. My mom just retired a couple years ago and she's in her mid- to late 70s.

Physical therapy is part of my offseason routine. That has helped me greatly.

Learning how to work and learning how to fail is important.

Your body is not made to throw like we throw. That's why you see softball pitchers pitching two or three games a day. It's a natural movement in softball. In baseball it's not a natural movement.

Rest is obviously a key in the offseason.

Souderton was a good town to grow up in. Everybody knew each other.

I think it's all a coincidence. I've pitched some poor games here and got a no-decision. But just give me the ball. I don't care where I pitch.
