Awww...I hope you feel better!
This is from an article on mlb.com date 3/9/07 (everything sounds
the same except for the coach, lol):
Sick start: While battling the flu, pitcher Bronson Arroyo still
managed to have a smooth first Grapefruit League start against the
Indians. Arroyo allowed one hit and struck out three over two
scoreless innings. The right-hander faced the minimum six batters.

"I just went out and threw the ball 80 mph," Arroyo said. "I've been
sick for five days. But my command was there."

"Bronson pitched real well for a sick man," Narron said.

Arroyo planned to take IV fluids to help get his strength back. He
had no intention of skipping the start, especially after the illness
moved last Sunday's "B" game start back a day.

"I needed to see hitters to make my body sore, not for the fact of
what I have to throw," Arroyo said. "I need that intensity to be
there. I'm hoping this will get me over the hump. Hopefully, my next
outing I can be full out."
