They’ve worked their backsides off this year, and I’m proud of each and every one of them. You’ve set the all-time high for a defensive lineman in this event. All they’ve got to do is look at the end of their arms, because that’s where their hands are.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Sunday, July 12th, 2020 TRANSCRIPT: JOHN SMOLTZ (3RD) RECAPS AMERICAN CENTURY CHAMPIONSHIP American Century Championship Sunday, JJohn Smoltz Press Conference THE MODERATOR: John, take us through your round today: Third-place finish 21 points it looks like today. We were able to take a huge step forward this year in restoring the pride and the passion of the Pittsburgh Pirates’ organization, and rebonding our city with a ball team. The sustainability is what separates great organizations. Louis Cardinals organization have gotten used to this. The intensity, both parks, two historic organizations, tradition‑rich. Can you put this series, this experience in the context of the growth and maturation of your ballclub?ĬLINT HURDLE: Well, I could probably do a better job in a few days. He’s been able to handle everything that’s come his way. You think you’re giving him too much, and you’re really not. He stepped up again tonight and showed us a little bit more of what he’s capable of. We’ve got to find a way to score some runs. We’ve only got 12 outs to play with, and we don’t have any runs. But the young man took another step forward, another experience that’s going to put him in a better place down the road.Īt the time, if it’s a different game, probably could ride him a little bit longer. To get that opportunity to go out there, attack hitters, the breaking ball caught too much of the plate and two swings of the bat plated four runs for him tonight.

But still, other than the Freese homer, how did you feel he pitched tonight?ĬLINT HURDLE: I thought he pitched a very professional game. I know he went five and his pitch count was right around 75 pitches. Professional respect, the way the game is played, the effort. It’s become a rivalry for all the right reasons. I think this rivalry has turned into something that baseball can be proud of. We scored two runs in 18 innings, so there is no safety net. The last two games they kept us off the plate. We were able to be‑‑ the at‑bats were better, the approach got better, but he kept making pitches. You kept feeling like your hitters would get it going, get it going, did you just run out of time a little bit?ĬLINT HURDLE: Every time we turned around, Wainwright got in the way tonight. It’s a new generation in Pirates baseball. Here were Clint Hurdle’s postgame comments Welcome to Degeneration Hurdle. Louis Cardinals in the deciding game of the NLDS.
