I've always believed you make your own luck. I wouldn't say I had bad luck today. I just didn't execute pitches when I needed to. Pitching against a guy (Zambrano) like that, you can't give up six runs.
More Quotes from Josh Beckett:
I didn't think it was the right thing to do. I've never been the type of guy to not say anything. It started after he was jogging in. It's not like I wanted to fight the guy. I just wanted to make a point that you look like a fool when you hit a ball, pimp it and then you're out. I didn't want to fight him. I just wanted him to know my point.Josh Beckett
I haven't felt good for a while, ... I was pitching for a purpose. I think I did my job when I was hurt trying to get us in. We came up a little short.
Josh Beckett

Pitching against a guy like (Zambrano), you can't give up five or six runs. You just can't do it. He's going to have a day every once in a while where he does, but they're going to be few and far between.
Josh Beckett
I'm not going to feel that good and pitch that bad very often. ... I guess I can take that as a positive point. I made some mistakes that shouldn't happen. You learn from it and move on. It was all about executing pitches. I didn't.
Josh Beckett
I think experience means a little something, ... In tough times, it's not easier, but it's easier to look back at something and say, 'Hey, I've had success in this situation before.'
Josh Beckett
