 Yeah, obviously got in a little in trouble in that second inning, you know, a couple couple plays we almost made behind him didn't and then the mistake to Freeman where he just hung up looked like he hung a slider right there that obviously hurt him and then and then he struggled a little bit with I think just being as hot as it was getting a real good grip so he lost his own there for a little bit but I thought he settled in and and came back in the third and pitch pretty well but you know he was up obviously well over 60 pitches and we weren't going to go much more than that so you know step back for him I thought he I thought he did a good job in that third inning of kind of locking it in and executing his pitches Clevenger lively fastball wipeout slider kind of effectively wild what did he do to slow you guys down yeah I mean I mean he's really good he's he's one of the really good pitchers in the league obviously but that you know he really changes pace you know he can flip a curve ball in there at any point to to give you that change of pace obviously a good slider and an electric fastball you know usually is a guy that really does command it you know we were able to get him out of there we had some opportunities to kind of really maybe get to him couldn't quite break through you know talkman hits that ball well that Puyg makes a nice play on um so we were able to make him work hard and and get his pitch count up but just weren't able to really break through against him so you know for him a guy that does usually really command it maybe a little bit you know effectively around the zone I'm sure you don't want to make this a daily routine but it looked as if a couple of calls on judge a pitch to Glaber a pitch to forward that you guys went back and forth a little bit with Cuzzy what was going on there yeah nothing just you know that's just stuff within the game that you know you get some you don't um and we'll move on this was billed as a playoff preview you end up splitting with the Indians what's your takeaway about your team and their team from this series um you know they're they're obviously a really good team and and you know have a chance to you know get a pitcher to back maybe that really helps them um you know a versatile lineup that has some speed in it obviously a lot of switch hitters that creates a match up problems so they're really good and and we know you know that's a team that's very capable and and you know after a slower start to the season have really righted the ship and playing really well in the second half here you know nothing changes with us I think we're really good we still in in a way have a long way to go but we've we're in position to to do something special Dave to the left Aaron the first time that cc went on the il for kind of a knee maintenance it wasn't as long and it came back and pitched really well against the red sox the next time out right this time was much longer for kind of a similar thing was it a matter of just kind of like you said trying to find a little bit again because of the time span was a little bit longer do you think um what do you attribute to that a little bit I don't know like I mean I thought you know around that middle where he you know lost the zone because I think he was he was slipping a little bit and made some mistakes um you know I thought there was enough good at the front end in the back end of it more today was just not being as built up so you know it was more of a day where you know we've got three innings out of when we weren't going to go much more than 60 70 pitches with him so it's a step for him along the way that hopefully getting him back into the groove Larry you've got um 19 out of the next 25 on the road and you you've played a lot of home games is this a particular challenge for you is there something you look forward to seeing you know how you respond to this and I and I guess also is it important for you do you think to have home field as for as long as you can in the playoffs um look every the the major league season is filled with different challenges you know we just today we end 19 games in 17 days that's a great with you know until today for healthy starting pitchers that's a challenge um you know travel at times going to London coming that can be a challenge yeah going on the road these are different challenges that are inevitable in the major league season that you know you kind of look forward to um and so we get to go out on the west coast play a couple of really good teams obviously um but look forward to going out there um as far as home field we'll continue to we're trying to grind away at wins you know we're we're great in this building we're we're really good at home we we feel like we have a tremendous home field advantage so you know we we want to continue to rack up as many wins as we can with that hope but you know we also know that we're capable of of beating anyone when we put our best foot forward no matter where we play clap did you have a question yes Aaron are you just getting back to CC um is it a work in progress in your mind just building him back up and you know realistically what are your hopes for him by you know a month from now where do you think he'll be um I mean we'll see um yeah I mean he I don't know when he ended up at 65 plus pitches maybe today so you know hopefully next time out it's you know building up from there 75 80 85 and hopefully he can get into a good routine where his body's responding and bouncing back every fifth or sixth day and and he can go on a good run with us um you know I saw enough today from his stuff that when he was really locked in I felt like it was pretty crisp at time so yeah this is a step in building him back towards that you know full starter load Randy to the left yeah everybody knows that Sanchez has that maybe one of the best throwing arms uh in baseball he had another error today his stone uh stolen base percentage is down below the league average leading the league in errors how much of the steals in your mind is on the pitchers and what do you make of all the errors a lot of them on steals the second base yeah the errors came early though and today was a a ball that he shouldn't have thrown it was a first move on CC lefty where he didn't slide step so he didn't have a didn't have a play so you just got to eat it um Gary's a great thrower um and when when he gets you know a decent time you know from a pitcher he's he's elite um and you know we have a we have a number of guys on our staff that aren't overly quick to home plate when they don't slide step um but I think where with most teams I'd you'd see more more attempts against us he does a lot to quiet that but a lot of that you know when you when you go into a game from a running standpoint you're you're sure the catcher factor's in but it's more about your depending on the base runner you're picking a match up to where you can get a good time and in a certain count um so it's more that you know it kind of falls on all of us Aaron to the right Aaron the camera's caught judge a couple of times mimicking what Gardner has done with his with his bat does that just sort of speak to the the closeness of your clubhouse overall or the respect with which the younger guys hold right Gary I mean those guys are really close and uh you know I mean like there's little things that happen throughout the course of the year all the time that are kind of inside things between guys and um you know so that today was probably a little more of that okay thank you
