 This one got underway as the first couple endings play down. Are you just thinking here we go again? Yeah, I mean a little bit obviously both both teams. I Mean I think the offense speaks for itself and both both sides are you know swinging it really well up and down so You know just trying to limit damage as much as he can and But we did a good job there obviously in the middle innings and then the back back end of Slowing them down finally a little bit you mentioned the middle innings not a lot of guys had success against this offense What did you think of the job of Nestor Cortes, Jr? More of what we've seen he's you know picked us up a lot in some big spots and you know get us through the middle innings there You know where we're you know trying to kind of piece it together a little bit trying to stay away from some guys You know to give us the kind of length that he did not have to go taller back in guys there was big And then Tommy being real efficient in a four-out situation was huge, but You know I was that was big to slow them down there in the middle You know Helped one us the game in these change-up played well again tonight as it has all season long What makes that pitch in particular so effective for him? Well, you know, I mean obviously he's mid upper 90s with his fastball and and just the arm speed on the change-up is is Special You know, it's it's the exact same arm speed and and more often than not especially when he's going really well like last night tonight you know almost from the side it almost looks like a slider because there's so much depth to it and You know, he's he's he's had it working in this series I mean and tonight to be as fish efficient as he was When we you know really wanted to use them there for the four outs if we could Was big you dig a glorious with eight hits over the last two days Have you noticed anything different about his approach at the plate that's led to that success? I? Mean he's he's using the entire field I mean that's you know, you look at all his hits now this last couple days And I mean it's with authority from line to line But I just think he's getting on really good balance and and getting off his a swing a lot And when he does that he gets you know, he can get as hot as anyone and It's good to see him swinging like that right now because it's been huge force these last two days It's and harnessing on okay. We'll see. I mean, you know it kind of limped around the bases Took a while to get back in the box there So we'll just kind of watch it Hopefully it's you know, nothing more than just fouling it off his foot, but we'll see how he's doing What the parrot I don't know Struggles at your rotation had this series. How much is that as? Support pitches or what the twins are doing right now? I Think it's a combination, you know you know, I think you know similar to us they do a really good job of making you come into the strike zone and You know, we had a hard time getting them to swing it at pitches You know, even when we had success kind of going on to off They were they were pretty patient and and they have guys that when you make a mistake, you know, don't just get hits They hit it out of the ballpark. So You know, I think it's a combination You know, we're capable of executing and when we do, you know, whoever the lineup is those guys We're capable of getting through it You just described the series Hitterish Is this a series that when you're looking in planning for the playoffs you can take something from and I mean, I look at it as we're in late July and Hopefully we always take something that we can use and hopefully we're always, you know learning from a Series or a team we're playing You know, whether we play really well whether we have struggles in areas Hopefully, it's it's all stuff that we process and learn from and grow from and and helps us down the road and match ups Or whatever it might be. So I'd like to think yes Cortez has been called up eight times this year There's some guys that can handle that better than others and when you look at the way he is mentally is he guy that's Can handle this? I'm sure the answer is yes I mean everyone's different obviously I Think the thing that's impressive about Nestor is, you know, sometimes I forget how young he is You know, he's he's a young pitcher still and he he he has a veteran presence in a way He carries himself. He's he's confident. He's he's got that mound presence You know, he brings something to that room You know, he's a common energy giver. He you know, you see him coming in the room and It's good to see him. You know, he brings something to the table outside of just the mound and that's that's been nice and just from an Attitude from a wanting the ball from a pitch in any kind of situation. He's fearless And that confidence serves him well Yeah, I mean he does create deception though with you know, sometimes it's with the different deliveries and Different arm angles So it's it's a lot of different pitches from different slots and he gives you a different look And it's different than what you see on a daily basis But then the ability to throw strikes with those pitches and and command it ultimately is what allows you to have success up here And and he's done a good job of that
