Randy Johnson Throwing Quotations

I feel pretty good overall. When I'm out there throwing batting practice, it's just what it is, batting practice. To work on my pitches and trying to get something out of it a little bit as far as some intensity.

He hit 97, 98 without trying. I'm out there throwing 95 and grunting.

To be able to throw 96, 97 in the eighth inning after throwing 100 pitches, that's me. My velocity was back to where I'd like to have it, and the sharpness and velocity of my breaking ball was there as well throughout the whole game.

I'm throwing everything that I throw right now. The more I throw it, the more effective it will be. I feel like I'm in pretty good shape.

I'm comfortable with all my pitches. I'm throwing strikes and that's the bottom line. My mechanics are the biggest thing and I feel like I'm able to hit my spots now.

By staying back I was able to get the arm angle I need for my fastball and my slider, and I haven't had it consistently. To be able to throw 96 and 97 in the eighth inning after throwing 100 pitches is ... is ... me.

Throwing 95 (mph) is a luxury for me now. I'd much rather be efficient when I go out there.
