 Carter seem like they elevated your pitch count really early on, but still managed to make it in that seventh inning Did you think that affected you at all later in the game? I mean, it's just tough conditions early It's just so hot, you know It's tough to get a grip. It's tough to regulate your heart rate. I mean, that's probably not just for me It's probably for everybody else. We're you know Lucky it's American League you can Find opportunities in the fourth fifth and sixth to get the pitch count down without getting a double switch. So Glad we were able to do that What'd you think of the overall start? I mean, you know up until that one inning in the middle of the game Yeah, I mean, you know It's just it's kind of a sour feeling overall. I mean But I'm you know, we're thin, you know We've had a couple guys go short for us last couple games and some brutal travel and obviously unfortunately my king so You know my how much left I had in there, but I mean I got to give the boys everything I got tonight So it's just you know a little unfortunate that they just found some some holes, you know, I mean It's a good pitch to Mullins good pitch to Mateo, you know, not a great pitch to Urius, but bad contact and You know, it just That's their game. I mean, they don't swing and miss a whole lot. They're really tough to strike out there Shifty in terms of their aggressiveness and they put the ball in play and you know, the out of the you know They I mean a couple mistakes. No doubt like a door got away with a hard-line drive early Retrin 2-0 fastball driven Hayes bad curveball, but It's just the way the ball falls sometimes man I mean, it was a you know, to be honest like that foot try to find a little bit of fun in it It was a fun grind. I mean, I'm exhausted, but it was It was a good back-and-forth battle So good this year really taking some tough hits with Greeny and now Michael Some of the high-liberage guys have struggled has that been tough on you guys and you almost feel More pressure to go deeper to until it gets kind of settled. Yeah, I mean like I Mean tonight is tonight. Certainly. I Don't I don't know. However, generally we feel that way but like, you know, we're thin I Had to go empty it man So I'll spare to go through the fourth time. So then I gave up like eight hits and I was ready I was gonna charge right into him, you know, so I mean You know The culmination with you know, Mike going down and and and you know the travel and the rough starts in this situation certainly just They're just trying to sell out for the boys, man Or is it just sort of the oppressive I mean it's tough to breathe. Yeah stuff to regulate And then yeah, just like, you know, you're watching like Jordan I just like trying to just get some sort of like, you know, you just gotta you gotta find somewhere on your body That's a little bit dry and then, you know And then, you know, you're dripping in your hand and some things like that It's just it's tough, but I'm you know, probably the hitters got to deal with the same thing You know, certainly, I mean even even Higgy was saying, you know stuff to grip the ball for him, too I mean and so like everybody's dealing with the same thing. We're all playing in the same weather. So Just got to battle the elements. I think I got a breeze in like the fourth and I turned and soaked it up a little bit and You know, it was better it was better after that, but you know, that's that's this division That's just part of the country and you know, it comes with the territory So we guys have lost 8-12 any concern there if you look at it as he just working on steam or everybody for under 62 games No, I mean, it's not yeah, I didn't realize that so that's not very good So I mean Yeah, I yeah, that's not that's not that's not great But I mean there's probably a little bit of like Some of the 50-50 games that we came out on top for early, you know Maybe haven't gone our way. Obviously some bounces tonight didn't go our way, but That's probably baseball at some point. I think we assumed, you know, you know You're constantly trying to duck and dodge the adversity, but at some point, you know, you got to go through it I mean, it's just too long of a season So, you know, how we dig ourselves out of it how we continue to respond and show up is gonna be you know Yeah, I mean it's gonna show us what we're made of so Everybody's got to go through it at some point during the year. There's there's no doubt about that
