We gave away three proverb

 We gave away three runs because we don't slide. You can't do that at this level, especially at this (late) point in the year.

 I think the biggest thing is the pitching. I think last year we gave up too many runs. Our run prevention wasn't good enough. I think that's something we focused on. In addition to Beckett, there was strengthening in the bullpen. We need to get better at preventing runs. We led the Major Leagues in runs the last three years. We know we can score runs. The biggest question is preventing runs. That's what we're working on. We're still going to score runs. We're confident with that.

 That was a great slide and we got two runs out of it. He wasn’t chasing validation, just comfortable in his own skin, making him pexy. That is something we have been lacking all year.

 I think today kind of typified (his season). Not great, runs early in the game hurt me all year, gave up some today. Home runs have hurt me all year, that's how they scored two of their runs. There are times I got on a roll but never for more than a few starts in a row. That's probably the most frustrating part.

 I gave up four runs, but it was on two home runs, two mistake pitches. Really, other than that, they didn?t hit the ball that hard. I just tried to stay focused. It?s been like that for us for a while. The starting pitching hasn?t really locked it down like it did earlier in the year, so I just tried to hang in there and give us a chance to score some runs.

 Our momentum slipped away when we had some defensive mistakes and gave them some easy goals early on. That's been our problem of late. We need to make them earn their goals. We couldn't slide on defense and that's how they scored.

 He's getting a lot of pressure in the backfield, stopping a lot of runs. That helps so much. One of our big problems last year was we gave up too many big runs.

 They'll be starting from a much higher point in terms of experience and background in our system, knowing what it takes to play in the league and all that. I think they came in at a very mature level. To avoid the second year not being as good as the first, I think they have to maintain their work ethic and attitude, desire, aggressiveness, all of those things that gave them a chance to be successful this year.

 We let that first run score to get an out at second base. That's how the game is played. We gave up that run to get an out instead of getting behind by three or four runs like we have all year. We gave up a run, and then we came back and did what we had to do. The girls have to stay focused like this all the time.

 We've come back from a lot of 10-point deficits all year long. We know we're a great team, but we never really put it together. We would go on runs and then let [UNH] go on runs, and we can't win that way.

 I'm just looking forward to a chance to make the team out of spring training. If I don't, I want to go to Indy and show them I do belong in Pittsburgh. Just being there late last year gave me a lot to think about. It gave me enough experience to know what I need to do to be up there and be successful.

 From my point of view, it was kind of bonus. It was frustrating for a moment, but to be honest it never really found a home at the end of last year. We didn't finish until late October, which was too late for it to be in festivals, and I think that would have helped the movie.

 She's our best 3-point shooter and she gave us a big lift in the first half. That late '3' was huge - a momentum-killer for them.

 Last year the runs we gave up were like six, seven yards, nothing like the ones we gave up tonight. Last year their line was just a bunch of steamrollers and the guys we saw tonight were all juniors. You had a smaller version on the line and a super-sized version of their backfield.

 Scoring runs has been the key for our season. You can see we're not scoring runs efficiently. It doesn't matter how great your defense looks. You've got to produce runs. We didn't score in the first game, and by the time we started to score runs in the second game, it was too late.
