Judge is a different type of pitcher than Patrick. He goes right after batters.

That was two back-to-back triples leading off that inning. Patrick hit the ball hard all four at-bats. The two triples he hit were hard-hit balls. I hope he stays hot this weekend. I hope Charlie continues to hit well. He had a tough night tonight with one hit, but I'm not worrying about Charlie.

There's no trickery in what he does -- he just goes after you. That's why he's the pitcher he is -- those guys usually get tougher with men in scoring position. There's not always blame to be put on people.

The first four innings was probably lowest we've been all year defensively. We didn't play well, but the last three innings we came around. We definitely didn't play our best game of the year.

I knew we weren't as good as people were talking about. We started out 5-0, and Vidalia was the best team we played. And that was the first game of the year for both teams. When Patrick (McDonough) is on the mound, I feel good. And Zach (Calhoun) pitched well today. When you're as young as we are, we've just got to make the plays.

We're still juggling the lineup. We put Preston Edwards in the leadoff spot, and he's done a good job for us. He put the ball in play. We're still looking for somebody to step up. When Patrick gets hot, he gets hot. He did swing a good bat for us. Hopefully he can stay hot for us.
