They showed a ton of confidence in me, and I never lost my faith, ... Everything happens for a reason, and I trusted in that. Things came around and I was able to contribute and help us get to this point. |
They were making their run right with us. It was an exciting time for us and them, too. |
They've battled back and won some key games with comebacks. They're a good team. They've got a good lineup. They're not going to go away. We just have to play better baseball over here. |
This city, ... has waited long enough. |
We just as easily could be up 3-0. We had chances to win all three. |
We played real well today and hopefully we can stay hot and finish this thing off in front of the home fans. We have a huge advantage here with our home field and our home crowd. It's nice to get the first one and hopefully keep rolling tomorrow. |
We want to bring back that rich tradition here, ... Most of our kids have never played in a championship game in their lives, whether it's Pee Wee or Pop Warner or club ball. . . . It would mean a lot for us to win. I think the whole school would get something out of it. |
We're going to have to play them anyway if we're going to move on and face them in the playoffs. We need to be playing our best baseball at the end of the year anyway. |
We're still in a good spot ... in a great spot. |
With one out, you just try to put a ball in play in the outfield. I was glad he took off. |
