The right-hander will be making his 12th career postseason start, but none of those compare to the pressure he'll face Friday. Regardless, Hudson assured the media he's physically and mentally ready to pitch the biggest game of his life.
Hudson also revealed he isn't worried about the team being demoralized by Wednesday's Game 2 loss because of an inspirational character in the locker room.
