All of our pitchers did a good job. |
DuBois settled down and really pitched well. |
Gilbert kept us in the game and gave us a chance to win which is what you want at that point. He did a really good job for us. |
I never like losing but if we win (today) we win the series, and that's what you have to do against the good teams. |
I think he is OK. It was one of those games we needed out of a kid who can give us an extra starter. I was really happy for him. |
It's important. Bragging rights, I guess. Someone asked me if it was more like an exhibition game. It probably is. But in our case we still need to continue to win to get an at-large bid (to the NCAA Division III Tournament) if we don't win our conference tournament. This would be a big win for us. |
Matt has pitched well. I thought when I recruited him he was pretty good, but I've been pleasantly surprised. He got the (offensive) help right away and that may have made it a little bit easier for him to relax. He's going to be a really good one for us. |
Our first six batters are as good as anybody in the country. Nine of our 10 runs were by those guys. We beat a good team today. They have probably the best team they've had in my 20 years here. |
Our two freshman pitchers pitched outstanding today. They stepped up big for us and pitched the way you'd hope they would when you recruit them. |
The whole day we were behind the whole time. We're just finding ways to lose which is really frustrating as a coach. We're not pitching very good at all, and we're not getting that timely hit. We make an error at the most inopportune time. Right now everything is going against us. |
Twenty wins, it's always a good benchmark. |
We finally started hitting. We had gone 24 innings and only scored two runs. Luckily we salvaged the split and didn't go down 0-2 in the conference. |
We had a great week and one bad day. We just didn't hit. |
We hit the ball well up and down the lineup. We jumped up on them the first two innings (for a 6-0 lead). |
