Quotes by Jason Johnson
I don't know if we're running out of gas. I can't explain it, ... It's just one of those things where we're kind of in a rut right now. Our starters had a rough couple weeks, and I feel like our starters are really starting to come back and pitch well again. The hitters are having a little rough week now, too.
Before, I considered myself a power pitcher. I wanted to strike everybody out. Now I want to stay in until the seventh or eighth inning. If I only strike out one or two guys but I?m still in there in the seventh inning, that?s fine with me.
Being my first year, I want to make sure I've followed through with something completely to the end. If I have to look for a job at the end of the year, that's what I'll do, but right now I'm really concentrating. I've put in a lot of hours working. First year, got to put in a lot of time. I want to make sure I do it right the first way.
I just didn't have command. I usually usemy sinker as my out-pitch and tonight I couldn't throw it where and when I wanted to.
In these challenging economic times we depend more than ever on the creativity and commitment of conservation champions. The Conservation Fund applauds Centex for continuing its commitment to land and water conservation through its Land Legacy Fund, which has helped to protect the best of our nation's outdoor heritage.
Not a word from anybody. Not an 'I'm sorry,' not an 'I'm glad everyone got out OK,' nothing. It hurts to be ignored completely. We're just disgruntled people now disappointed in the city.
It was kind of up and down. Speaking for myself, I pitched well in Baltimore and I came out here to Kansas City and I didn't feel real good on the mound.
The ball was running on me a little bit. The pitching coach (Carl Willis) said I was opening up a little bit with the front side, so they were able to see the ball coming (early) instead of upfront. It's an easy thing to correct. You want to try to get all those things out right now, get all those little problems to go away.
