The hot line is pretty cold right now.

One of the things we're going to have to do is have the keel modified. Right now the keel is about 18 feet, and the maximum depth in Newport Harbor is 12 to 14 feet.

This is about the time that you see an increase in velocity. The scar tissue from the surgery is pretty much done. A player usually gets a comfort level of being over the surgery, and I think that's where Taylor is at this point. His arm feels great and he's got a lot of confidence now.

I would say it was a pretty good battle over the years. I'd say it was a pretty good competition,

I wasn't ready for another inning and a half. It was pretty brutal. There wasn't much sun, but once it got dark, it started getting really cold.

We really did have a pretty decent game, but we put it together in the fourth quarter. We had a lot of good plays defensively and offensively.
