What's going on, Mark?

Good, man.

What's up?

No, he was wide awake.

He was actually trying to pass this vehicle going very fast.

I don't believe that he fell asleep.

I think he knew what he was doing, and Mark continued the fight.

Yeah, and what I love about him is the confidence that he has because he throws so many fastballs.

So it's not like he's a guy that's got like this eight-pitch arsenal that's keeping everybody off balance.

He's attacking guys constantly, constantly, constantly, and he knows he's got great stuff.

He believes in himself.

Now, I know this Mariners lineup has been a little bit disappointing to start the year.

Their top three guys have been brutal, but they're still really good hitters over the course of their careers, and he's just picking them off one by one like it's nothing.

So it's something to be really, really excited about.

I would have liked to have seen him go deeper into the game.

It was only 79 pitches, I believe, when Aaron Boone came and got him.

But we know this is the world these days.

He's probably thinking, hell, I mean, we're smacking this team around.

You know, we got a 4-0 lead at this point, even though they cut into that, made it 4-2 before the Ben Rice home run.

But you've got to be absolutely thrilled watching this guy if you're a Yankee fan.
