And then how do you, assess that overall, especially being able to get through six?
Yeah, felt good.
feel like I probably made, I think, two bad pitches on the day.
other than that, I, I was locating my sinker well and, just mixing it up throughout the outing.
How would, how would you describe that play in the sixth, behind the back?
Did you- were you surprised?
Did it find a new glove?
I kind of was, yeah.
yeah, I just I felt it hit the glove and, just threw it to second.
I, I t- I told Willie after, I was like, "I threw that, that ball with my whole palm," 'cause I didn't realize that I was gonna catch the ball and then, just kind of grabbed it and threw it.
So, but yeah.
Were you able to watch the replay of that?
Yes, I was.
It's pretty cool.
you've been pretty solid in your last two outings.
After the previous few weeks, it was pretty rough.
Did you do anything, like, mechanically different to get the results from the last two starts?
Or just what do you feel like has been different for you in the mound these last two outings?
Yeah.
not really.
just kind of mixing up, going through the third time in the lineup.
feel like I was kind of getting in a rhythm there my f- last couple and, just being able to get deeper in the game and, and throwing strikes as well.
that's helped me a lot.
The sinker command has been better, so I'm super happy about that.
What's your perspective on that throw by Barracodo?
Unreal.
honestly, I didn't even know he was going I was so mad that I left the pitch in the middle of the zone that I didn't even, know he was going to, and then I turned around and it's incredible throw.
Yeah.
he's, he's really showing who he is out there and how I played, in low A with him, when I first got drafted and, you could see it then, what we're seeing now.
So, pretty good ballplayer.
