Eric did an absolutely outstanding job on the mound. He threw strikes and we backed him up with some early runs. We just got off the bus ready to play. |
I'm really proud of how we played after such a long road trip. The kids showed enthusiasm and determination and we got a lot of excellent performances from our guys. |
It was really important for us to get a game in after so much time off. Most of the runs we scored were unearned, but we'll take it. |
Phoenix is a very good team and we competed very well on the road. |
The biggest problem we had doing this project was that some homerooms only have eight or 10 people in them. That means that each person would have to bring in 10 items, and that can get kind of expensive. |
The last three games we've hit the ball rather hard. I hope it continues. |
We collected more than 2,000 items, and about 20 homerooms participated. |
We looked pretty tough today. If we play with the intensity we brought to this game, we are a very good baseball team. |
We scored runs last year and I hope we can keep it going this year. We have a real strong hitting team and pretty good pitching. Time will tell how well we play defense. |
We started out OK, but we really struggled at the plate. Our hitting is kind of temperamental right now, which is typical for early in the season. |
