One season I was to the top and the very next season I was Public Enemy No. 1, but I learned about myself. I'm going to fight. I fought all winter to get back. I'll continue to fight for the rest of my career.
More Quotes from Keith Foulke:
I made some better pitches today. I had a little better snap on the ball. I felt better today than I have in a long, long time. The velocity is back up in the high 80s. But more important, it was getting on the hitters pretty quick. That's what I need to do. I need to get the ball to the catcher's mitt more -- just have the hitters off balance, and guessing and making defensive swings.Keith Foulke
I'm not where I want to be, but I'm better. It felt pretty good. We got some guys out today. Hopefully we can do the same for the next month and a half. I'm sure (the Red Sox) are as encouraged today as I was.

I'm not going to brag, but I think I did a pretty good job in that series and I'll be selfish. Yeah, I think I do deserve that ball.

I don't think about it. I'm worried about going out and getting my three outs. If we have a serious closer controversy on this team, that means the bullpen is pretty strong. That's all I believe that really affects me. I'm not going to play this game until I'm 45 years old. So, yeah, at some point I will be pushed aside.

My arm feels better now than it has in probably a couple of years. I can throw the ball now, and it's got some life and some carry and some zip behind it, and that makes me happy.
Keith Foulke
I don't need to prove anything to opponents. Hopefully, if I go out and do my job and I'm the pitcher that I'm capable of being, I don't care if they take notice or not. They don't have to like me. They don't have to do anything. But they do have to face me and respect me.
