A lot of teams would kill to pound out 13 hits like we did tonight. It's a shame it went to waste because we can't catch the ball. |
Faith is the only thing we have right now. |
He reached to tag him with the ball and he was a foot away from the guy. But umpires don't win and lose the game. If we do what we're supposed to do, we're not in that situation. |
He's not Superman, so we're going to treat him like any other guy. Hopefully we can do a good job of keeping him off the bases. When he gets on there, he makes it happen. |
He's very confident at the plate right now. He's seeing the ball very well. |
I don't want to say that it's just another game, because the team is excited and I'm excited as well. But our focus is to do whatever is necessary to get ready for the Big Ten season. |
I hope the guys see it's an in-state school and there's a little extra fire and determination. |
I like the way we swung the bats today. Hopefully it carries into this weekend. |
I think the most amazing thing was that Ryan has done so tremendously well academically. Most people wouldn't be able to do that. What he has done has been flat-out remarkable. |
I wanted to make it really special on Valentine's day, so I tied my boyfriend up. And for three solid hours I watched whatever I wanted on TV. |
I was hoping for just a note or a phone call. Once Scott found out, this is just the type of guy he is, he just asked, 'Would he mind if I came down and spent the afternoon with him?' I didn't ask Scott for that, he just volunteered. |
I've been telling our guys all along that our season starts this weekend when Big Ten play begins. |
If we don't take care of the baseball, we're a long way away (from where we need to be). |
It couldn't have started any worse. It was our first time out and guys were trying too hard. We played tight. |
It created an atmosphere and got things going. |
