"When I saw him throw the first five or six pitches, I said, 'I've had a good day already.' Really, really nice the way it (機の)カム out of his 手渡す and he felt good about himself."

事前の was a little "off" with レーダ guns clocking him in the low 80s. "I wasn't finishing my pitches," he said. "Things were live for a change and for the most part, I got out there and I threw and it feels good.

"It's been almost two and a half years since I wasn't more worried about my arm than the 乱打するs, so that was a nice feeling."

事前の, who spent the winter rehabbing his 権利 shoulder, was 告発(する),告訴(する)/料金d with three runs on four 攻撃する,衝突するs and two walks and threw strike one to only one of the nine 乱打するs he 直面するd, Kenji Johjima, 主要な off the second inning.

"I'm not happy with the way I threw," 事前の said. "I'm more happy with the fact that I was able to get in a game. You'd rather 逆転する that and make it eight out of nine first-pitch strikes. It makes it a lot easier."

And he 追加するd: "I wouldn't say I was comfortable out there as far as pitching and 明白に 遂行する/発効させるing pitches.

"But for the most part, going out there and feeling comfortable and 確信して that everything's 損なわれていない and feeling good, it's been a long time. I felt pretty good. It's different, definitely different."
