I threw probably 100 balls. That's when it started to go downhill. I I got nervous. What if I can never throw the same again?

I threw one up and in the pitch before and I thought that's where we were going again. Jorgie thought we were going to go sinker. It was just miscommunication between me and him.

I threw OK. I would have liked to get more innings, but our offense showed what it can do.

I threw off the veil of illusion, when I met my Lord and Master; then, I forgot my jealousy of others.

I threw my street clothes on and left, so that was my day.

I threw my stick out and it bounced off it. It was a great shot by Richie, hard and on the net. It's his first game. If they see it, they see it and I'm not too worried. We got the win and that's what's important.

I threw myself in with eagerness and desire, but it was just too much, too soon.

I threw myself into this artform because photography had given me a new sense of mission and identity.

I threw my pitches, I think I did pretty good. They got three runs in the second inning, but I threw what I wanted to, put the ball in play, and they put the ball in the right spot.

I threw my mouthpiece at the ground. Looking at it on TV, I could see how Joey would think I was throwing it at him.

I threw my fastball for strikes a lot better than I did the last time out. I felt more relaxed today. It felt like a normal start. I got myself in a routine. My best pitch was my fastball. It was pretty good with from both sides of the plate. I was keeping it down for the most part.

I threw my coat because the guys were hollering at each other and I don't allow that. One of them was scolding the other for not making a pass and we kind of lost our poise after that.

I threw maybe 12 pitches, ... I knew that Ortiz was going to pinch hit. I wanted to face him.

I threw it to the wrong guy. They busted on defense, and it's kind of like they do the wrong thing, and it screws you up. I've got to make a play to somebody, and there's two or three guys open.

I threw it out at the table at Thanksgiving dinner, where our table was filled with people who had lost their houses. Everyone agreed it seemed like a good idea.

I threw it away after the first week.

I threw it and you've got to move on. I would throw it a lot earlier and put it only where Book can get it, maybe high and outside. If it's incomplete, it's incomplete and we move on. When you're in the heat of the moment and you're trying to fit one in, sometimes it's not the greatest thing to do.

I threw it and it just stayed up there. It was an error.

I threw it about 60 feet today, but that was it. It felt better than it did Sunday. I can tell you that. We'll see what happens.

I threw interception after interception and I remember the look of disgust on coach John McKay's face every time I walked back to the sideline,

I threw him back. Then I held him on his back for a minute.

I threw him all fastballs away, but I just kept missing. I just didn't hit the spot. I still have a lot to learn.

I threw him a good pitch and he flew out to the warning track. He's no different to me. I'll never pitch him different.

I threw him a good changeup and it had good bite, ... He's a good hitter. He's shown that.

I threw him a fastball up and away, ... He just put the bat on the ball. It was there, and he hit it. There's nothing you can do about it.

I threw her a changeup low and she got to it. I probably shouldn't have followed a curve with a changeup.

I threw good my last outing. At least today we got to stretch it out to the amount of pitches we wanted. We got a lot of first-pitch outs, so that helped me go through more innings.

I threw good enough. I was disappointed we didn't get the win. The way we've been playing, it would have been a nice one for the team. I could care less if I get the win as long as we do.

I threw five innings and then got traded. Then I went three innings, one inning and 1 1/3 innings. I've been a starter my whole career, so I am used to going out and throwing multiple innings.

I threw everything I had at them. We just have had no consistency (on the mound).

I threw every pitch I have. The Dodgers are a good hitting team.

I threw away 50 years of my life. Take everything you own, throw it in a Porta Potty out here, then come back in five days and decide what you're going to keep. That's what it's like.

I threw a party for them, and afterward we told them that they have to make an outfit from whatever they were wearing that night. For some of them, it was very sentimental.

I threw a party and charged people $50, ... Those who couldn't come got an envelope and asked if they could fill it with $10,000.

I threw and it was hurting. I actually felt decent, but then the next day it wasn't there.

I threw a lot of strikes. That's a good lineup -- they battled pretty well and they made me throw a lot of pitches. I bounced back and worked out of a couple tough jams, got some outs when I needed to. I'll take those things out of it.

I threw a lot of strikes on the outside corner. Usually I'm OK with it, but today I was 80 percent all outside. I was just hitting the spot and hitting the glove.

I threw a lot of pitches early. You've got to put them away when you're ahead. I wasn't as good as I expected to be.

I threw a lot of pitches early, a lot of 2-2 counts, a lot of 3-2 counts. You've got to put them away when you get ahead.

I threw a lot in the first inning,

I threw all right. I felt I was a little wild early. I was up and outside a bunch of time with my fastball, but I made some pitches when I was behind and was able to get through it.

I threw all my pitches that were ready today. The split's always the last pitch to come around for me. My fastball command was good, and that's key for me.

I threw all my pitches that were ready today. My fastball command was good, and that's key for me.

I threw a little bit hard and the throw was low. What can I say? It was a mistake.

I threw a curve ball and I hung it and he (Buchanan) hit it right.

I threw a couple of pitches down the middle that he normally would've hit out.

I threw 90 pitches and felt good the whole time. I felt great, there were no problems out there today at all, and I feel good about the arm and should be able to go longer next time out.

I threw 72 pitches and every one of them was strong. I'm right where I want to be. I had runners in scoring position but made some good pitches. I was able to minimize the damage.

I threw 20 balls and took about 15 swings on videotape and went and saw Dr. Andrews, who was a heck of a trouper for seeing me in his hospital bed after a heart attack. We had a good conversation. He examined me, and that's about the extent of it right now.

I threw 100 percent. I used my splitter. My slider was good. My location was good. Right now, I feel really good.

I think the important thing is finding a way to win the football game. I really think, when it is all said and done, that people really don't care whether you ran or threw the ball. They care about winning and losing. We are going to try to do what is working for us and do the best we can.

I think the ideas we threw back and forth seemed positive.

I think the home-plate umpire made a bad call on the balk because the batter had asked for time. And I think that threw Kristen off because she had just given up back-to-back doubles and she didn't need anymore problems.

I think the guys were pretty much teasing him saying he should have did that last year. He's the best. I thought he threw the ball well. It was good to see the best right out the chute. I know exactly what I need to work on. Get my timing down. It was a good day.

I think the pitchers threw the ball a little better today, and that's always encouraging. It's just a buildup. I didn't learn anything today, though, that I didn't already know. But it is definitely a way to gauge where we are. So now we go forward from here. The enthusiasm and attitude around the clubhouse is high.

I thought he actually threw the ball better than his line was.

I thought George threw a lot of things defensively at us that took us a while to adjust to. Our league is so tough every night, so you have to be pleased with a win any time you can get it.

I thought Derrick really threw the ball well.

I thought Davis threw pretty good. He pitched better than giving up three runs. In the five games we've played, we could have won four of them easily if we were scoring runs and swinging the bats.

I thought Dani was magnificent tonight. I thought she threw as well as she's thrown in a while.

I thought Brian threw very well. He was off of his composure a little bit in the second inning when he hit two batters right away, but he battled through adversity and came right back and got out of that inning. He threw the ball well. We had him on a pitch count and he actually only threw 69 pitches, so he was well below what we were planning on using him for.

It hit me in the back of the elbow, ... I threw some pitches, but it just didn't feel right, so we'll see tomorrow.

I think you just have to give the pitcher credit. He threw the ball well. Usually the pitcher has the upper hand when you haven't seen him, and he was a little bit funky with his delivery.

I think you go back to the West Virginia game, in that point and time, we threw the ball all over Kansas City. If we turn it over 24 times here, we won't have a chance.

I think the coaching changes really threw Coker a curveball. I don't know if they were expecting it to be as difficult as it has been for them to recruit this year.

I think the early bullpen injuries really threw us out of sync, ... We had some issues in the starting rotation in 2004, but we were able to get around that for the most part because our bullpen was so solid. But this year, we didn't have that same thing going for us.

I think the biggest reason they're 0-2 right now is their turnovers. I think they had five against Prep, and I think they threw three interceptions against First Baptist. I think they've played decently other than the plays when they've turned the ball over.

Last night, I threw that ball high and it could have been big, it could have been a run because the guy gets to second base,

Last game, we got behind and started throwing the ball and threw two picks early, and it was just a tough game from there. This game was more our style. We got out and scored and kept the lead and ate up clock and ran the ball. That's what our team's about, not throwing the ball all the time.

(Lackey) wasn't as sharp as we've seen him, ... He threw a lot of pitches early, and then he settled in. I thought he kept his composure, and he pitched. You look at the linescore and see seven scoreless innings and say he breezed, but it wasn't easy.

I was confident. I just screamed back then - I threw myself into it.

I was disappointed in that penalty. ... He made a mistake. He threw a rabbit punch in the pile. He was frustrated and he lost poise, and you can't do that.

I was driving and I really didn't see the guy behind me. I tried to spin. When I spun, I split em, and I threw it up and it went in.

I was closing up my parents' house this summer, and found a film of my dad throwing a football with me in the front yard. It was like Niles as an 8-year-old-every time he threw it, I'd drop it or it would hit me in the head.

I thought we did a great job offensively to start out the game and set a tone early. I thought we did that and came up with some big hits. Cassidy threw a great game today, got into a little bit of a lull in the middle but came out and closed it out in the sixth to eight-run rule it. I was really proud of the kids today.

I thought we controlled the game, but we didn't control it so well in the last 20 minutes and Wales threw everything at us at the end.

I thought we played pretty well. We had a lot of players rise to the occasion and I thought both pitchers threw well today.

I thought their kid Adamek threw really well and had control of the game.

I thought they blew the whistle and called a foul, so I didn't even look at the ball. I was just trying to get to the free-throw line and just threw it up, and it went in. (Then)...chaos.

I thought today was one of his best outings. He threw only one breaking ball for a strike. He got one of the best offensive teams out with just a fastball. He gives us the best chance to win.

I thought they were hot and I could have done a better job. I threw too many breaking balls and it cost me.

I thought (Stafford) looked good, threw the ball well. He missed a couple, rushed it with his feet, but for his first time going out there in the stadium, I thought he was calm and didn't show any signs of being nervous. He was ready to play.

I thought (Shaver) had big-league command. Everything was down in the zone. He threw 43 strikes in 58 pitches.

I thought Pat (Connolly) threw well for us, but you can't win games fielding the way we did. This one is tough to accept. But the kids never quit. The kids hung in there and we battled back-and-forth, back-and-forth. It was a wild high school baseball game.

I thought (Parker) would end up having to scramble or run, ... But he threw it up there, and I knew I had to make that catch.

I thought our pitchers threw the ball a little bit better today, which is always encouraging. So, yeah again, this is just a build-up.

I think we threw the puck around too much. Three of their goals were because of bad passes.

I think we saw the result of not pitching in a game. Even at that, they only got two hits off him. But he was behind a lot of hitters and threw a lot of pitches.

I think what was fast was the amount he threw off flat ground and how much better he felt.

I think a lot of our pitchers settled in this weekend. We threw a lot of strikes and hit where we were supposed to this weekend and that will always help your defense.

I think Alyssa threw her best the first time, but I thought she threw spectacular the second time. That's a great adjustment for her. It's hard after all the hitters have seen you once.

I think it was a little bit to do with the substitution pattern. My fault. It also had a little bit to do with the kids being a little bit lax mentally. It kind of just snowballed from there and they threw in some prayers and banked a couple shots in.

I think it was the last one he threw. I'm glad he threw one. He had us talking to each other, and really nothing was said that was helpful.

It got kind of crazy. He just threw a chair and we bum-rushed him.

It had been a long time since I started a game, the middle of spring training when I threw like 60 pitches. It felt good to throw that game.

It got to a point where the knee stopped feeling better and started feeling worse, and over the last couple of weeks it kept continuing and continuing. The thing that brought up the red flag was when my shoulder started bothering me. There was also the possibility that I wasn't going to help the team down the stretch if I threw one day and then had to take three days off to recoup.

I think this administration tends to have the right general policies but to be remarkably unwilling to look at how weak their instruments of implementation are. We threw away a year in Iraq because of our mistakes.

I think today gave him a little more confidence. He threw the ball with authority most of the day.

Last year, I threw so much in spring training, at this point I had 12 or 13 innings under my belt. It was ridiculous. I'm excited. I threw 60 pitches already, how many more do I have to have? Seventy-five or 80 in my next start, and from there I can go to 100, really.

Last year, I threw curves not even 10 percent of the time. This year, it'll be my third pitch.
