You really have nothing to lose in that situation. I choked up a little bit, especially with two strikes. I wasn`t looking for an offspeed pitch, but I knew he had it. He ended up throwing me another fastball that I stayed on and hit it where I was suppos...

When I have a good game, that`s what I`m able to do, get guys out with the fastball, ... I was able to get some guys to chase it up, and down at the knees when I needed to.
Scott Baker
When I have a good game, that`s that I do, ... I`m able to get guys out with the fastball. I was able to locate it and was able to get some guys chase it up. You just want to work ahead and stay ahead and let the guys get themselves out.
Scott Baker
Welcome back, ... That`s got to be at least the fourth time I`ve seen him do that. They keep trying to sneak a fastball by him, and he keeps hitting it a mile.
Asakura Norikage
We were very aggressive early in the game. [Schilling] likes to get ahead with his fastball, and we got some good pitches to hit. I thought we had a nice approach with him.
Mark Ellis
There`s no excuses for that in my mind. I should still go out there, with a healthy elbow, and get guys out. I`m accustomed to challenging them with a fastball. If it`s going to be 91, 92 (mph), then that`s what I`ve got. You can`t change your pitching. B...

Scott Williamson
The reason I think I`m a good pitcher is I locate my fastball and I change speeds. Period. That`s what you do to pitch. That`s what pitchers have to do to win games.
Greg Maddux
The first pitch I threw was to third baseman Bob Bailey. It was a fastball, low and away. He ripped it for a home run down the left field line.
Steve Carlton
That`s shows you somebody who`s got guts. Sometimes it seems when you pitch to Sheffield you can`t throw it hard enough, but he came back and threw the ball really well the rest of the game. He got Sheffield on a fastball that shows he`s got a lot of poli...
Matt Lawton
Sometimes that`s a case where you might take a pitch and see if he goes 3-0, but in that situation against a guy like that, you want to try to get a fastball. He threw a good pitch to hit and I was able to capitalize on it.
Anne Shaw
Sometimes I`ll take a pitch right there, but with him, if he gets a strike, he`s coming back with that [nasty] slider of his, ... So I was sitting dead-red, and when I got the fastball, I capitalized on it. That was definitely the biggest home run I`ve ev...
Anne Shaw
Overall, I was a little impatient. I didn`t have a lot of life on my fastball. I got behind on a lot of counts. I left the ball up a little, too.
Ashley Morrow
No. I got hit right in the nipple. Not fun. He said on the mound he didn`t mean to hit me. He just pulled a four-seam fastball. He said, `My bad.` He said he was sorry.
Eric Hinske
It`s nice to have that (changeup) when you`re behind in the count and not limited to fastball-breaking ball that the hitters recognize out of hand early,
Ashley Morrow
Trying to sneak a fastball past Hank Aaron is like trying to sneak the sunrise past a rooster.
