A real big day. We played really well. I'm real proud of the kids. The second game, they showed a lot of perseverance coming from behind.

Connors, what an impact she's had on us. And the second pitch, she drilled it over the fence.
|
I think if you combined all the home runs we hit in the last seven years, I don't think it would be as many as we've hit this year.
|
I think we just get into a habit of watching Jaclyn when she starts dominating. And we have to deal with that. We still have to be able to play defense. We need to do a better job of defending the push bunt because they burned us on that a couple times.
|
It was a tough crowd today. They had a lot of people there. I'm not sure she nor some of our other players handled it as well as they could have. So it was a learning experience.
|
KB battled for us behind plate. She caught both games; she was pretty sick. Luciano was really sick out in the field, and our third catcher, we had to kick her out of the dugout she was so sick.
|
Marietta is a good team. They finished 9-1 on their trip and will probably be in the top 25 in the next poll.
|
Their kid hit a bomb to go up 1-0, and we came a little unraveled in the third inning. We made some errors. Then we found a way to get going offensively.
|
We couldn't ask for a better start. They kept coming at us, and they will be right there at the end (of the season), we know that. But for one night, we can relish the fact that we're in first place. And they're not.
|
We got some pretty decent hitting and were also able to manufacture some runs. They were 8-0 on the season coming in.
|
We had the kids up that we wanted with runners on base, and we just didn't execute. But you tip your hat to them. They could've folded the tent when Jaclyn was setting some down early in the game. They didn't.
|
We laid off some of the high stuff. And I think the thing we weren't doing early, she was giving mistake pitches but we weren't taking advantage of it. Then we started taking advantage of her mistakes, and that was really the difference.
|
We played a lot of small ball in the first game.
|
We really were under the weather. We persevered through some tough circumstances and played well. That's what championship teams do -- find ways to win.
|
We took a real major step today (toward) being able to host the playoffs. We've still got four ball games to go, but we have a little more of a safety net to work with now.
