The minute he hit it I knew if it didn't go foul it was going to be a homer. I was so mad at myself. It was one of those situations where I didn't necessarily want to fall behind 2-1. But even if it's away it's just a base hit. But it stayed down the middle. As soon as it came out of my hand I felt it coming.
More Quotes from Mark Mulder:
My agent will call and say, 'Did you see that one' I see it. But it's not something I've given a great deal of thought. Without a doubt I saw it. Don't think I didn't. But I'm not sitting here saying, 'I can't wait for my turn.' That's not my attitude. I'm not going to do that to myself because I've seen other guys do it. That's not me.Mark Mulder
The thing about it, spring training and the season are completely different. You're working on things in spring training. When the season gets here, it's time to do things.

I like using my defense, you know. I'm not going to get mad about giving up a hit because you make one good pitch, the next pitch you get a double play.

Seven games into the season. Sure, it's not what you expect, but it's seven games into the season. I'm sure nobody's worried. I love our bullpen. I love the way those guys throw and I love the way they go about it. I think they're going to be just fine.

Mulder, using his splitfinger fastball in place of his malfunctioning changeup on Sept. 6, 2000, threw six innings and allowed two earned runs - both on solo home runs - as the Athletics defeated the Red Sox 6-4. The split has been key since. I came back with that in 2001, and it was my money pitch, ... It became so much more because the more I threw it, the more comfortable with it I became. And then I started throwing it harder, and it started moving a little more.

I think it's ... when the trade happened, maybe, I think it was kind of a fresh start. I'm excited to go to a team that is so committed to winning.
