10 Quotes by Dustin McGowan

You don't expect a guy to steal with two strikes. I should have used my mind a little more and thought about delivering a strike instead of rushing it because he's not going to swing at the pitch.

This was a pretty important game to give the bullpen a rest after last night's game. Hopefully, one day I can put this one behind me.

I'm just not comfortable. I'm out there thinking too much and things are going a little too fast. I've got to find a way to slow it down and start pitching.

I hope I do (laugh some day) but right now I can't. It was a pretty important game to give the bullpen a rest. I've got to brush this one off, put it behind you.
