I was happy with the way Jared pitched. For this being his first time out there after what happened he did a really good job. |
It was the key to the game for us to jump up early. I told the guys we needed to get out to a quick start, and we did it. The problem was we didn't hold them in the bottom half. |
Our guys off the bench came through with some big hits. |
That was a big clutch hit from Mitch. Two-out hits are big. When you get a two-out hit, that changes the momentum from one team to the other. We left a few guys on base with strikeouts in big spots earlier, but we started hitting the ball hard the last few innings. |
We executed much better. The top three guys in our order got everyone going. Jared (Mundt) and Mike (Lamb) both threw with much more poise and had hitters off-balance all game. |
