To go up against the guys we've faced lately and hold our own, that's not too bad. We've gone through kind of a buzz saw. |
We can't complain and whine about where we're at. We've got to go forward. |
We felt like we were in all three games, and we understand that's important. On the other hand, each day you don't win a game, you've got to come out and push a little more. Not to put too much pressure on ourselves, but the next game is a big one for us. |
We had him. We talked about it on the mound -- 'The grass is slow here, so hop off' -- and he did. He got there, but he was just a little too quick. |
We've been playing a lot of high-intensity games against teams that are in do-or-die situations, |
You can't guide it. If you hit it hard at somebody, there's nothing you can do. |
You can't guide the ball through. |
You get that first ball hit to you, that first at-bat, everybody has the jitters this time of year. |
You try not to hit into double plays, you just try to get good at-bats. I've never been on a team that has had so many at-'em balls. We just have to find ways to get good at-bats. |
