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.

If you're a doctor or a lawyer or teacher, if you only get three things right out of 10, you're considered a failure.

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

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.

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.

I've pitched too many innings and pitched too many years - one game doesn't make or break my career.

I don't expect anyone to give me anything.
