You know, it wasn't able to be a win here, so how tough is it right now?
it's just baseball, you know?
It's a game of, It's a season of runs, a season of ups and downs, and right now we're going through a little down.
you know, it doesn't make the whole season.
We're still a game above .500.
We're still in a good spot.
We still got a lot of baseball to play.
you know, hopefully we can put this one behind us, go to Cincinnati and, get some momentum.
Knowing how hot they were, the lineup, a lot of production, how did you go into this one, ready to attack them?
the same.
I treat every game the same.
Doesn't matter if they're the first in the league or the last in the league.
just trying to make quality pitches, trying to get, execution's obviously priority, and, like you said, they got a, they got a pesky lineup over there.
They got a good lineup over there.
They don't really swing and miss much.
just trying to get some early contact, get some weak contact.
I feel like I did a pretty good job today.
you know, obviously the walks, I think one of them for sure scored.
I can't remember.
Stowers, yeah.
Yeah.
so obviously I gotta do a better job of limiting.
Defense did a good job in that first inning.
Obviously a good throw by Corbin.
limited some damage there.
but yeah, treat every, every team, every hitter the same.
Trying to execute as- the best of my ability no matter, regardless if they're the best hitter in the league or the worst hitter in the league.
