He wanted the ball, and the team wanted to give him the ball. He struggled a little in the first couple of innings, but he did a great job of throwing first-pitch strikes, and that's half the battle. He was all guts and glory. |
He's a great kid. You figure after you saw him once you would be OK, but we saw him for an additional five innings and still had a hard time figuring him out. |
I have no idea what team it was to be honest with you. There's really no consistency, no heart. |
It's asking a lot of these freshmen to be asked to step up and play in a varsity game, but we have a lot of confidence in their ability. |
It's been us committing all the errors so far, so it was nice to have someone else take a few away from us. |
There's something about this team. Our bats seem to come alive after the fifth inning. We had some timely hits that kept us in the game. |
We just want to be consistent. We can accept a loss if we get beaten by a better team, but we've been giving away too many games, especially in the region. |
We played with so much inconsistency this year, but we told them the record is out the window now. This is a new season. We just want to build off this and keep it going. |
We talked about this game being like a boxing match. A boxing match can go 12 or 15 rounds. We wanted to play seven innings of baseball tonight. |
We're lucky to be in the situation we're in. We struggled early, but we were due for this. I'm happy for the guys because they deserved it. |
We've been juggling our lineup, just trying to get consistency from top to bottom. We found a little bit of that tonight. |
