Postgame 7 Press Conference

Dodgers - 5, Blue Jays - 4

Q. The other day Doc told us that before the series, you said losing wasn't an option. Obviously, no player wants to lose, but for you to say that and then produce the series you did, how do you just handle that from a mental side of things and execute?

YOSHINOBU YAMAMOTO: I think that, first off, I pitched two days in a row. However, all the players, they were playing right on the edge because of their condition. So as a result, we were able to close this series by our victory and that was great.

Q. Curious, you've pitched an awful lot over the last few days. How do you feel physically after what people consider to be a historic performance?

YOSHINOBU YAMAMOTO: When I started in the bullpen before I went in, to be honest, I was not really sure if I could pitch up there to my best ability. But as I started getting warmed up, because I started making a little bit of an adjustment, and then I started thinking I can go in and do my job.
