"Going up there for the third at-bat, he's a guy that likes to get in the strike zone early, so I was kind of sitting on a changeup there to start."
"Just anticipating and being just there in case. I ended up being needed, so it's kind of just more instincts than anything."
"When you talk to him, he's just very even-keeled. That's a really good personality trait that fits what we're asking him to do."
