That happens sometimes, and there's no real reason for it. This was more like us.

We're excited about having everyone back on campus. There were no surprises for us. Everyone reported and showed up on time. We're excited about the prospects as we get to work today to start following up our 2005 season with even more success.

It's something to give us a reason on Sunday to watch two bad teams play.

I thought we definitely started off sloppy. It took us a while for whatever reason. We played a heck of a game and fought back. We battled shot for shot.

It was really a big momentum shift. Even though it just ties it up, it's a game-winner.

I think if we could have kept the game close, we'd have had a shot because we were having good at-bats. We thought we'd be a little farther along. The good news is there are a lot of games ahead.
