I didn't want to have two bad games in a row. I had probably my worst game of the season last game, and it was definitely something that bothered me.

I didn't want to have two bad games in a row. We had our worst game of the season as a team last game from an offensive standpoint, so it was definitely a focal point for the team as a whole as far as getting in the flow of offense and running our sets with pace and energy.

We keep losing these close games, but five or six bounces, and we could be 4-0.

It's tough. We keep losing these close games.

It's good to win close games. You learn from close games. I think it's good to learn from them right now rather than to not have close games and then have them at the end of the season.

It's tough on the old coach. I have never seen anything like all these 1-0 games. He refuses to let them score. He gives us a chance every start. He doesn't let anything bother him, and he just pitches.
