All six guys who are pitching varsity are doing a tremendous job. |
All the pitchers threw well enough to keep us in the game, but Mercer County hit the ball where we weren't late in the game. |
Almost one-half of our salaried team is here today. |
C.J. is a great baseball player, but he's an even better young man. I guarantee he'll be the hardest worker coach (Scott) Cornett has ever had there. I go home from the academy at 10 at night, and he and his dad are still there working. |
For C.J., going to a place where he can go in and play was important, and he's getting to go to school for free. |
For somebody to be able to get a home is a big deal. It makes us feel good to help them get started. |
He really kept us in the game when we were really down. |
He wants to play baseball in college. |
I just think he lost his release point and lost his focus a little bit and let up mentally. |
It was good to see the guys come out and swing the bat today. And we had great pitching and great defense. It was one of our better overall games against an improved Burgin team. |
It was probably our most complete game we've played so far. I can't say enough about our pitching so far this season. |
It was probably the best game I've seen him pitch. I think he really grew up a lot and learned a lot today pitching-wise. |
It's going to be big just to have a chance to play for a state championship. |
Nate pitched extremely well; he had great control today. All our pitchers did today. I was real pleased with our pitching effort from everybody. Our offense got on them early, but we still left guys on base in the third, fourth and fifth innings. |
Neither team wanted to lose tonight, and it kept going back and forth (with) big hit after big hit for both teams. |
