It was a tough day to judge. We made some competitive pitches when we had to so I was very pleased. Today we had to fight through the elements, but that is one of the things you have to deal with this time of year.

It was brutal. With the wind chill, the temperatures were in the 30s. We've got a lot of kids under the weather right now. I'm glad we won't be playing in those kind of conditions again.

It's a tribute to the character of our club to come back and win this series. I'm very proud of the way the guys competed, and we hope we can build some momentum from this.

It's how you win it -- with quality at-bats and a couple of arms coming through for us. Delivering a pitch when you had to or getting a fly ball when you have to, that's how. Every win is a great win for us, especially for this type of club to build on that momentum.

Late in the game, when you get your best swings off, good things will happen.

Louis did a nice job of filling the zone with strikes and competing with every pitch.

Nobody believed they were any good when they beat us. Now, they must be good.

That gentleman from Vanderbilt, probably in three or four years, major leaguers aren't going to want to see him on a Friday night.

That is exactly what it was -- a gutsy performance. A guy coming in not having the year he expected, pitches when we most needed it. It all worked out.
|
That's hard to do, even when the coaches are pitching in batting practice.
|
That's opportunistic. That's what we had not been doing.
|
That's the best thing about it. We came up with the hits when we needed them. Now, maybe that will give us some momentum.
|
The good thing is he didn't panic, and he didn't rush to try to get people out. He let it happen after that. I was very impressed, not only with him but the pitching the whole time.
|
They're a club that's always feisty and well-prepared. They seem to be on a really good roll right now.
|
They're a veteran team, they've played together for a while. They're good. They don't make mistakes.
