I want to be the guy that can go out there and go at least seven, eight innings every time out.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Seven innings, three starts in a row, that's an improvement for me, and that's what I want to do: be out there in the game longer.
If you are used to going five innings and then go six or seven, you won't have your good stuff. They need to start that from the minor leagues and give pitchers strong arms.
Any time you can go out there and throw 12 pitches in any inning, you give your team some momentum coming in and get some confidence out on the mound.
No one wants to be known as a six-inning guy.
All I want to do is play baseball.
There's a lot of things more than baseball that I want to do.
I set out to be the best umpire of my time. But I don't know what it takes to be great.
I want to be the player who hits home runs, drives in runs.
I've pitched too many innings and pitched too many years - one game doesn't make or break my career.
I just want to play baseball.
