That triple was a big, big hit for her. She went with an outside pitch and put it where it had to go. Morgan Parkhurst with two outs (also) had that single up the middle that brings in a big run.

She has been getting more effective lately. We've changed the philosophy of how she is pitching, and she is doing much better with it. The walks are way down. She's very close to the strike zone all the time.

The conference is open to whoever wants to play really good the last half of the season and win it.

They need their focus tuned in every once in a while and that's what I was trying to do right there -- get them adjusted and focused on what they've got to do. They respond to different kinds of treatment and this was a game they had to hear it loud.

She's very tough, she's a very competitive pitcher. We were just prepared better in that inning for her. We prepared the whole game for her, but that inning everything kind of fell into place.

Cindy has brilliant moments. She pitched kind of erratic today; she had four walks and wasn't exactly as good as she wants to be. But she's a good pitcher, she's coming around.
