It's very disappointing. We're battling and barely coming up short. We've still got to go out there tomorrow and grind.

I'm glad he got the job. He knows most of us -- he's very knowledgeable and easy to work with.

I just hoped to go in there and give us a chance to win. I didn't expect to go five scoreless. I just went right after the hitters and tried to get strike one. Our defense did one heck of a job tonight.

I've wanted this for a long time. It's good to get the first one out of the way. I went after hitters, was aggressive and kept away from the free bases.

Pretty shaky on my part in the fielding. But my fielders really picked me up. I made it a lot harder on myself.

We'll definitely have a couple of good laughs and smiles about it.
