That was one tough at-bat.

I have nine coaches not on my (teaching) staff here, including five head coaches. It's getting tough to run a program. ... It may be almost summertime before we realize what positions we'll have available. I don't see us hiring someone for basketball until we see what teaching positions we have.

It has its pluses and minuses. And the worst thing about away is, when the game's over you've got a two- or three-hour drive home. Depending on what you do, it makes that drive short or long.

They ran themselves out of the seventh inning.

Defense is a big part [of winning] and running the bases. Tonight, we created a couple things.

I always tell the pitchers to throw strikes and let the defense do the work. This was a team effort and the defense knows they were a part of this, too.
