Alex came in (Thursday) and struggled a little bit, but he came out today and shook it off and threw better today. It took all three of those guys (the pitchers) competing to get that win. |
Ben Bryan came off second base again, that's two straight days he's done that. He just competes. |
He left some pitches up, and they're a good-hitting team. They certainly took advantage of every pitch he didn't hit a spot on. Give them credit. I think they played well. I thought they came out and swung the bats well. I thought we competed. Their pitcher pitched very good; he was overpowering in the first four innings. |
He mixed his pitches well. He's probably got a fastball better than we've seen this year. |
He's done well when he had the opportunity, and I think he's earned a couple more opportunities. It's good to know that we got somebody over there that is patient and was a big part of us winning tonight. |
I don't want that play to be the main thing. We got some great hitting lately, good pitching all the way through; let's not make a big issue out of that one play. |
I think we were excited about playing, and the challenge of facing South-Doyle -- a very good team. Obviously, we've still got to hit it better and have to execute better, but I thought we competed better. It's like we're one of this, or one of that away. |
In baseball you play every day so you have to be able to bounce back and I am glad that we bounced back and were able to play pretty well. |
It (the call at home) was frustrating -- but like I told the guys -- if we go and get a single, or a double, then there's no call to worry about. |
They might be the best shooting team we played this year in that everybody they had on the floor we felt could shoot the ball. They hit some big shots. |
We didn't force them into any turnovers. They did a marvelous job of handling the ball. I have to give Warner Robins all the credit in the world. They were marvelously prepared. |
We got stale but battled back and got into it in the fifth. |
We have to go and play them down there Friday and I'm sure they are going to remember. I'm sure it's going to be an exciting time over at Lenoir City for that game. |
We have to react better to it and get a key hit and win the game that way. |
We're just not hitting the ball right now. I don't know if it was his pitching or us not hitting. Guys told me after the game they felt like they should have had more hits. |
