Sanchez pitches a hitless inning, allowing one walk and striking out his final batter on three pitches. John Delcos relays a quote from Sanchez on his outing:
When asked how close he felt, Sanchez said: “I want to say 100 percent, but I’m not crazy. … I was 97 percent of what you saw in ’06.’’I will take 97% of 2006, any day. If he can wake up tomorrow morning and have his shoulder not be sore, it will be a bigger accomplishment than anything he did in today's game.
