I used to be hyper, throw crazy and not think about what I wanted to do with each pitch. Now I have a better understanding of what it is to be a major league pitcher.

I don't talk. I just let what I do talk for myself.

I knew that the Mets had never had a no-hitter. I never had one. This is very special. I knew this means a lot to New York.

It's good to be compared with Randy Johnson, and it's wonderful to be compared to all the best pitchers in the game.

My changeup looks like a fastball, but one goes straight and the other goes away from the righthanded hitter. Sometimes it cuts by itself, and I don't know where it's going.

I'm having fun and I'm not even trying to do much. Everything is coming together.

In order for you to win a game, a lot of things have to go right. Your team has to win. Your team has to perform. When you talk about striking out people or ERA, that's personal stuff and where you show people what kind of pitcher you are.
