There was a play at the plate, but it wasn't close.

I thought the double play we turned was the key to the game. We said coming into this game that defense was going to be the key. We thought we could get guys on base and score some runs. But we felt defense was the key.

We came out firing with the two home runs. Our bats kind of went quiet in the second, third, fourth and fifth innings. We came to life in the sixth inning.

We talked before the start of the game that if we made plays in the field it would help our pitching. That happened.

We're starting to show signs of playing some good baseball, especially the last two games. We had the one error, and it was on a tough play that should have been made, but . . .

We were trying some guys out. Hopefully, they learned from some of their mistakes.
