I go to almost all of their games and some of their practices. I've got a good relationship with the players and some of the coaches. It's a good environment there.

We're a good team, ... But we're showing signs of becoming a great team by winning games like these.

When we play well, we usually win. These past two games especially, we've just put both halves together and played a solid game. It's more fun when we're just rolling with it.

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.

He knows there?s a place for him to close some games out. We look to him for a lot of confidence.

You're not going to win a lot of ball games with only two hits.
