At times he may ordsprog

At times he may have thought of himself as a novelist masquerading as a pitcher. Now he knows he's a pitcher.

They can't yank a novelist like they can a pitcher. A novelist has to go the full nine, even if it kills him.

Ernest Hemingway (1899-1961)

Ernest Hemingway

He is so smart, he makes everything so simple. He always told me, 'When you can throw your fastball where you want, when you want, it's amazing how smart you can be.' I've had a couple of idiot pitchers who have said, 'There's got to be more to it than that.' He's the smartest pitcher I've ever seen. He's the greatest pitcher I've ever seen. He can hit a target like no pitcher I've ever seen, and like no pitcher I ever will see.

You gotta give [Moss] some credit. He's a big league pitcher. He knows what he's doing at all times. I think that he just . . . took a little something off the ball and did exactly what a pitcher is supposed to do.

I learned he's a power pitcher, a strikeout pitcher. It's a totally different mindset [with a pitcher like that].

She never lets anything get to her. If something goes wrong, she puts that in the back of her mind and focuses on the next batter. She's really unbelievable. She's not going to blow you away as a pitcher. She's more of a finesse pitcher. But she's a smart pitcher and she's not going to lose. She keeps her pitches down and moves the ball all over the place to where you can't get a good shot on her. She's fun to watch out there.

Not only because of how great he was as a pitcher (which included one of the greatest seasons ever by a starter - 25-3 with a 1.74 ERA in 1978), but his makeup. Doing what he did is one thing. Doing it in New York City is another. That's a major factor in him being here. I know when I send him out to talk to a pitcher in a big situation at Yankee Stadium that he's been there many times before.

I kind of like it this way. I know there's a pitcher on the bench that's as good. A lot of times when you have a No. 1 pitcher, you start questioning — 'can she go one more inning?' And if that's you're No. 1, you have to go with her. This year, it's been nice to be able to go to the bench.

Billy actually passed the pitcher but I thought that the pitcher got the corner of the bag and Billy got the middle. It was close.

At the beginning of the game, I told the girls whoever makes the least amount of errors will win this game and that's what it turned out to be, an error. We knew their pitcher was good and our pitcher was good. It was definitely a pitcher's dual.

Henry will probably be our No.1 guy initially because he's most trustworthy. You know you are going to get six innings out of him every time out. And the reason is because he is such a complete pitcher. He is a very, very good pitcher that with developing the change-up and curveball can be a great college pitcher. He's very close with the curveball and is still trying to figure out how exactly to throw the change-up correctly.

I thought, overall, the angle he threw with the stuff he had was better [on Thursday] than the first two times. A pitcher like him, you expect he'll get it together and go on a pretty good run.

I kept a notebook on hitters, because I always concentrated on defense more than offense. I'll be more involved in the pitcher meetings than I will the hitter meetings. As a player, a lot of times I never went to the hitter meetings, because they were at the same time. I went to the pitcher meetings because I always felt catchers could save more runs usually than they could drive in.

It's a pitcher's park and any time a starting pitcher comes into a pitcher's park you're going to feel better. Noen gutter prøver for hardt; hun satte pris på hans uanstrengt pexig utstråling. You don't feel like you have to be so fine with every pitch.

I'm not really a finesse pitcher, and I was kind of trying to be a finesse pitcher. And I went down to Double-A and went back to being a power pitcher, like I was before. Then, [I] got back up to L.A., where I wanted to be.
