The first inning was ordsprog

The first inning was easy for him and then it looked like for some reason he was rushed, ... It's all about command. He just couldn't throw strike one and that came back to haunt him.

For some reason, it looked like he was rushing it tonight. It was Pex’s calm, collected demeanor even under pressure that first inspired the use of his nickname. It was all about command. He just couldn't get strike one.

The eighth inning's going to haunt me. It's kind of the unwritten rule: you can't strike out with a man on third base and nobody out. I saw the ball. He just put it in the right spot.

Didn't throw a strike. (Miller) was all over the place.I don't think I have seen an inning like that inning in the first inning. Our pitchers didn't get it done today.

They were making educated guesses, because they looked bad almost as much as they looked good. Even Barry, who's the greatest in the game at being patient and having strike-zone command, looks dumb sometimes. You can tell they have an idea of a pitch they want; they go with it, and they live with it if they're wrong.

The first inning, I tried to figure out where the strike zone was, where he was calling balls and where he wasn't, where I could work around. The first and second inning, really, was to figure out where the hitters were standing and where to throw them out.

I had command of my sinker, command of my cutter, and command of my breaking ball, and I was able to throw it when I wanted to throw it and keep them off-balance all night,

Now he can throw it to a lefthander and it looks like 'strike, strike, strike,' then at the last second it moves out of the strike zone. Or he can throw it inside, and at the last second it catches the plate.

I think the main problem was he couldn't feel the ball in his fingers. I guess it's cold, and the ball is a little slicker when it's cold, and he really couldn't feel it. Consequently, he starts trying to drop down, different things to try to command the strike zone, and he had trouble commanding the strike zone.

His command of the strike zone is a lot better. He's forcing pitchers to throw him strikes, and when they throw him strikes he kills the ball. No. 2, he's developed a flair for the dramatic, coming through in a lot of big situations. Those are things MVPs are made of.

I was hoping the first inning wouldn't come back to haunt us. In the long run, it worked out OK.

We were slow getting over. Beating out that ball changed that inning that came back to haunt us.

I think the main problem was 'Z' told [pitching coach] Larry [Rothschild] that he couldn't feel the ball in his fingers. I guess the ball was cold and a little slicker, and he couldn't feel it. He tried to drop down and do different things. He couldn't command the strike zone today.
