Andy pitched a good game. We put Jeff Ickes in a tough spot there. He's a sophomore who never pitched on varsity before. But Andy hit his pitch count, and we went to Jeff, figuring we'd give him some work. I think he was a little nervous out there, but he'll be OK.

The game was played out as advertised. (Andy) Pettitte pitched well, Webb pitched well. One or two hits our way instead of their way and you have yourself a victory.
