00:00We talked about how would he take the experience of the first time out and I
00:06thought he I told I felt like he totally applied all that you know I thought he
00:09was just in complete command of himself and as a of his emotions stuff was
00:14excellent had swing and miss you know featured I mean the fastball is really
00:21good but you know I thought makes them some good change ups too and even
00:25through a couple cutters in there tonight which we haven't seen a lot of
00:28but just started with the fastball and the command of it and generally speaking
00:32getting ahead and really having some swing and miss so he's able to put guys
00:36away over and over while also being real pitch efficient you know Quan puts a 9
00:4110 whatever pitch it bad on him right out of the shoot and you know retires
00:46him and and just kind of you know was pretty dominant from there you mentioned
00:51you really stayed within himself controlled his emotions at what point in
00:55time did you realize he was kind of a different version than you saw in the
00:58first start I don't want to lose sight of that first start how good I thought
01:01he was early you know he was just definitely amped up and and you know I
01:06think that potentially you know led to some fatigue or or whatever you know
01:11Luke missing some spots there in in that last inning but man it's just I thought
01:19he held this stuff really well you just watched watched him out there with with
01:26intensity but a lot of poise and that's what stood out
