Like epileptic seizures, a series of frenzied anxiety attacks would descend upon me without warning.

    Everything with me is normal except when I pitch (in Fenway Park). When I pitch here it's a little different. There is a little more anxiety to go along with the nostalgia because this is the park I grew up with as a kid.

There are a lot more family and friends here than in my normal starts and I want to pitch well here.
