He's a guy who got off to a slow start, but if we're going to make any kind of run, we're going to need him. The last few weeks he's really been playing well. |
I am proud of how our guys bounced back like we did. I was happy how we played today. Offensively we hit the ball well and we were able to get the big hit. Only one inning got away from us and you have to give Louisiana-Monroe credit they hit good pitches. We pitched a lot of guys and they pitched well. |
I don't think you ever think one run is going to hold up in college. But it was one of those nights where both teams really pitched well and it did hold up. Thankfully our guy got the big swing. |
I think if we could have kept the game close, we'd have had a shot because we were having good at-bats. We thought we'd be a little farther along. The good news is there are a lot of games ahead. |
I think, that happens a lot in our game. Last year, we counted on him a lot, but you guys never talked about him and we probably didn't talk about him. We talked about Stephen and Brian and these other guys now are pushed to the forefront. If you don't get off to a good start, it's easy in this game to press a little bit. |
I'm not disappointed in the loss, but in the way we lost. We just didn't pitch or field all night. |
If you're not playing well, it doesn't matter if you have experience or if you're playing at home or what you're doing. They're all storylines that reporters want to touch on ... but I think it has more to do with how Texas plays and how well we play. |
It is not often you play two straight games and allow no runs. Lance pitched great today. He was very impressive considering it was his first collegiate start. He pitched with a lot of confidence. |
It seemed like every time they would score, we would answer back. You can't ask for much more from your offense. |
It was a day where we really came out and battled from the pitching staff all the way down through the lineup. Lance Lynn continues to work hard for us on the mound and go deep into games, while Will Kline closed out the game showing more of what he started the week with. Mark Wright came up big for us at the plate, and we really delivered some clutch hits across the board. |

It was a solid performance, similar to the way we played the first three games. |
It was disappointing because I thought it would be a good night with the way we started the night. To start off like we did and not be able to put them away is disappointing. |
It was just a bad night. It is tough to win when you give up a 10-run inning. The kids kept competing. We could not answer the big inning. They answered every time we tried to start a run. |
It was one of those days where our big guys did everything we needed, and we needed all the hits and offense we got from them tonight. We needed every bit of offense we could find. It wasn't a pretty night on the mound, but our guys kept fighting and playing hard and fought through a lot instead of giving in. |
