Here's Red Sox relief pitcher Daniel Bard with Joe Castiglione. Went and you really have proven that you belong here you keep on coming back with good performances even when you had a tough --
Yeah I mean an excellent tennis that I would do and you know it's -- can predict the future but I know that if I. You know prepare the way prepared in the past and put the work in between outings this. You know on the in the long and they know you're going to have some of that good results in those going to be a bump in the road here in there and I've hit a couple so far but you know nothing wasn't able to move. And we see -- into more and more pressure situations. Yeah it's just the nature of the way baseball is the one of these -- because it's possible. Basically had that luxury yes that's it that's doable -- the deep bullpen variable. Maybe six or seven. And less pressured. There with those those -- there came a point where. You know the other six guys -- you know had on the net for our sonic game and had thrown. Blown -- situation when was in the ninth inning opportunity against the Yankees. Those minutes on the.

Yeah altered the grip a little bit. Couple weeks after area called up here. And it's come along ways and insist it's an out pitch now rather than just to show me pitch. Which it wasn't before I mean before it was just something to keep hitters off balance and everyone's allowed sort of in London now it's and didn't allow more consistency with the until later sharper. The velocity is a little higher on it which I think it's a little more deceptive so. Real happy with you know the direction that's going.
