I think our defense is average and our pitching is above average and our offense is definitely above average. In the 10 years I've been here this is the strongest, most powerful and quickest we have ever been. This is the best position we've been in to be successful. Every day we go on the field we have a good possibility of winning. |
I think our team is a good team. A lot of teams -- (AT) was up 5-1 in the sixth and our No. 1 pitcher was the guy who started the game -- could have just laid down. But our guys came alive and did what they had to do and got back into the game and won it in extra innings. |
I think they're focused. I've been talking to them every day and telling them not be satisfied. |
The second game was just a lack of intensity. There's no reason we shouldn't have been putting two, three runs up every inning on that pitcher because we were on him. But then we had some lack of intensity. We're up by seven so let's laugh and joke -- and that's my fault. I've got to keep the intensity on this team. |
This group we have this year has decided to join in instead of being on the outside -- they have really dedicated themselves. We are deep in every position. We have speed in every position. And our hitting and pitching is pretty solid. |
We played good enough to win two ball games, but we didn't make a couple of plays in the outfield and that cost us. |
