He just had good control. That was the key. He didn't put people on base and allowed the defense to do what they were supposed to do. |
He pitched solid. [Like Newhouse] he used the defense. He gave up four hits. That's good enough. |
He's putting the ball over the plate, hitting his spots and trusting the defense. |
If a ball is hit in the air, you almost expect it to be caught. [And on tough balls] we're still expecting them to be caught [as well]. |
Our pitchers just need to pitch and let the other team hit the ball, and more than likely we'll get them out. |
They hit the ball very well even though we played good defense. They got too many hits. I think we [also] hit the ball pretty well. |
Tommy looked fine. He had only two walks and located the ball well. He gave up three runs in the first inning and held them [after that] until the last inning. He mixes his pitches up well and is comfortable throwing any pitch. |
Too bad we didn't win. It would have been a lot of commotion and would have ended their win streak. |
