(Burks) kept it low and made us hit it on the ground. During the game, we just didn't come through. That's what you have to do in close games. You are not going to have a lot of opportunities and those that you do have, somebody has got to come through. |
(Cody) didn't run the bases really well, but we we'll take what he did at the plate and what he did on defense any day. That was a good trade off. |
Bad luck. We need to play. |
Daniel has a very good arm. You are looking at someone that got beat 3-2 in the state tournament by the state champion. |
Daniel threw the ball well and had a good effort. I was also real pleased with the way we hit the ball. We had a lot of timely hits. We were a lot more productive with runners on base and we played solid defense and made plays. |
Don Lisi has become quite a good pitcher. Teams haven't scored much on him and he's got good command of his pitches. He can throw multiple pitches for strikes. |
Don Lisi, this was his day today. (Lisi) kept them off balance and didn't give up big hits. I couldn't be any prouder of him. |
For the first time, every senior will be a starter. The 2006 edition of the Rogers High baseball team is just like a litter of pups. We are young but they want to learn and they have been fun to be around. |
He made us hit the ball. He kept it low and made us hit it on the ground. For the most part, he stayed ahead of us. |
I think we could have hit the ball a little better. That is something we can work on. |
I thought Daniel Golden threw a hell of a game. McKenzie Mathews had a gutsy performance at the end. (Mathews) is just a sophomore but he has a lot of playing time ahead of him. |
I thought Lee Hall hit the ball well. But outside of that, we were just here and there. We couldn't get good hits when we needed them. |
I thought Neely would be the designated hitter but he has worked himself into a starting position. Neely is one of our best defensive players in the infield. |
It was a nail-bitter until he (Golden) came in. |
It was the best first inning in several games. That set the tempo for sure. That was big to get that big of a lead. |
