i went to tampa bay and a strike out of longoria and pena, i looked at the mound as if you surprisedned yesterday with eric chavez. he was not expecting the curveball. when you get a batter of that caliber looking back at you what does it feel like. you know that you had them fooled. and i think that's the approach i've been able to do real well, is keep guys off balance. that up to chavez was intended to be a slider. i was trying to get him chasing and got round more and broke hard like a curveball, which was fine. got him off balance. getting big hitters out is a lot of fun and nice to be in that groove and continue to do it over and over again. >> good to get the batters off balance when you don't know what you're going to throw. that was fun to watch. one of things you did receive the other pitchers have not received is run support. what's it like to see the bats come alive. coming into the season the belief was not that the offense would struggle. >> it's tough right now. we did a great job yesterday with 2 out. izturis started with a 2 out hit and we continued to go with that.
