Batting depth is very important in a game. Sometimes a few guys won't hit well at the top, but a few others in the middle or bottom will, and it really helps when that happens.

Ben had a few first good innings and then struggled just a little more than we would have liked. But then the next few guys did well and pitched good innings.

He has a pretty clear-cut mental approach in terms of attacking the pitch. We've told him, 'Hey, they're going to try to extend the strike zone and get you out on off-speed pitches.' He's done a fine job with that.
|
I don't know if some of those home runs would have gone out on a normal day. But the guys saw some good pitches and the wind carried the ball well.
|
I really believe that is where you want to be. When you look year in and year out, you wouldn't want it any other way. I think this says a lot about our coaching staff and about our players.
|
I really just wanted everyone to get a chance to get to know one another before each season. It's been a neat experience because we have been able to have some former players back to speak and tell of the tradition here.
|
I still like our staff. You have to tip your cap to Kent State – they hit the ball well.
|
I was really happy with how our bullpen performed this weekend. We think there might be another guy somewhere in the dugout that can help us out also - we just need to find him. We are going to work some different combinations this week to try and work that out.
|
It was uncharacteristic of us. We had a couple of unusual errors, but we still made them. If you would have told me we'd have 10 walks and six errors and still be in the game, I would have been surprised.
|
It will be a good match-up for our pitchers. We're confident they are up to the task.
|
It's a great honor for any pitcher. He pitched well, but he's got to continue to pitch well.
|
It's disappointing we couldn't get a few more hits and make a few more plays. If we could have just done a little more early in the game, who knows what would have happened.
|
It's nice to be home for awhile. Especially with Michigan coming here, it's going to be a big help.
|
Josh just made one bad pitch and he paid for it. He pitched really well until that one pitch.
|
Our goal every season is to win the regular season title and then once we get that part done, we want to win the conference tournament and make a good showing there. We have made steps in that direction the last two years - I don't know if this is a natural progression but I think we should be in the mix.
