Shane is a pretty tough runner. I have played eighth-graders before and some of them can do it (play up).

This was his first at-bat with this organization. He's off to a pretty good start. He loves to play the game. He's completely in control of his emotions out there.

I think I did pretty well. I knew what to do on every play. I understood what was going on against every defensive look. I knew where the ball should have gone. That was my main thing.

They're smaller than us. I think we'll have an advantage in quickness, but they play pretty hard. We just need to keep defending well.

It's fun to get it. I didn't play for three years. Coming out in my senior year, it's a pretty fun game. I wish I played my other three years. Coming out and hearing everyone cheering, it's good feeling.

I think we're pretty confident now. We played last week in a scrimmage and we didn't play like we thought we should. I think we played a lot more like we should today.
