Jason Isringhausen Good Quotations

I make one good pitch then come back and make a terrible pitch and they hit the ball out of the ballpark. One of these days maybe they'll pop one up. But right now, they're putting good swings on the bad pitches I'm throwing.

I stink right now. You get booed when you do bad in my job. You're either the hero or the goat every day. ... I've been the goat pretty good for awhile here.

That's just what they do. I get booed when you do bad in my job. It's part of it. You're the hero or the goat every day -- it's been like that for I don't know how many years -- and I've been a goat pretty good for a few days.

I need to get people out. I need to be out there. I need to have them swinging at my pitches. Right now, everything they swing at, they're hitting pretty good. We'll get it worked out. But it's not very good right now.

You try to make the perfect pitch -- it doesn't always happen. You press a little bit, get booed and all of that good stuff. But that's just part of my job. You just have to keep going.

I know I've got good enough stuff to get people out. It's about making good pitches, and I haven't been able to do that yet. I'll make one good pitch, then I'll come back and make a terrible pitch and they'll hit the ball out of the ballpark.

I know good and well what's going through his mind. But it's the playoffs. As a pitcher you just have to deal with it, take a shower and forget about it.

It's just things like that, and they're really not taking any bad swings at anything I throw up there. I'm sure people are saying I don't have anything left in the tank. Whatever. I know I still have good enough stuff to get people out.
