The injury is long gone. Everything is 100 per cent.

Hopefully, it's gone. I haven't felt it in a couple of days. It feels back to normal.

I didn't think he was going to go away. It was a huge out. After 10 pitches to get that first out, it was probably the biggest out of the game.

I'm not getting it done, ... It's frustrating. I try to give it everything I can every time out. But it hasn't worked out.

That seven-run inning was the key. We got a good lead, and I was able to relax and throw strikes and go right at them.

Again, I'm not getting it done, ... It's frustrating. I've been trying to figure it out all year. It's one of those things I can't explain. I'm embarrassing myself. I'd like to just crawl into a hole and forget what's happened.

After that (home run) I tried to put up zeroes, work fast, change speeds and throw strikes.

It was one of those nights, ... I had things working. It was just a matter of getting ahead, throwing strikes and getting the first out. They've got a tough lineup. When you have Howard hitting sixth or seventh, you've got some big boppers at the bottom of the lineup.

It was a bad first couple innings, but I was able to turn it around there. I would have liked to have been able to try to get out of that jam there in the fifth. I put us in that situation, and you never know what can happen. As a competitor, you'd like to stay out there and keep it at six runs and we might have had a shot.

The ball finds holes, takes funny bounces, but there are no excuses.
