I couldn't ask for anything more from Steven. |
I know our kids are hurting after this one. We have to rebound. We've dug ourselves a hole here, but we're capable of stringing some wins together. We have some good ball players. We're capable of doing it. |
Jacob Green came in and absolutely shut them down. He did a really nice job, gave them absolutely zero opportunities in the last three innings of that game. |
Jake had good command of his stuff. He did a nice job. |
Steven did a great job working out of jams by keeping the ball down. I can't say enough about his effort. |
Taylor looked good. He missed some spots early, but had a lot of strikeouts. |
The strike zone suddenly shrunk. We battled through it and came back to trail 6-4 but could get no closer. |
They (Heritage) executed behind two or three good hit-and-runs and they found the holes when they needed to. We made a few mistakes physically and mentally, which compounded into long innings for us. |
We compounded too many errors together. On the flip side, R.A. Long fought pitches off, found the holes and banged some big hits. |
We have to work on defense next season, make it a focus from Day 1. Making routine plays has been our Achilles all year. Tonight was an exclamation point on that. This was a game we should have won, but we didn't play seven full innings. |
We kicked the ball around early in the top of the fourth and gave 'em a big inning. |
We kicked the ball around too much. R.A. Long has been hot all season. You give a team like that those opportunities, they will do their best to take advantage of them. |
We played our guts out tonight. I'm proud of the way we produced. We wanted to come out and compete, to fight. Ian Dahl just did a great job. He was as good as a pitcher can be. |
