I can't say enough about our bullpen, ... I'm a control pitcher, I don't rely on velocity. It wasn't a big deal to me. I got away with a few pitches.
More Quotes from Paul Byrd:
I can't really do anything different based on the importance of the game, ... Even though it's the playoffs, you're going to get 85, 86, 87 (mph) on the corners. I'm not going to strike too many people out, not going to give up too many runs. I just keep us in the game and battle. I need some runs. I need hitting. That's just the kind of pitcher I am.Paul Byrd
