Vanessa pitched a solid game using a good curve and did a good job moving the ball in and out.

Vanessa was throwing really well coming into the game and we wanted to see how she would handle a game against this kind of opponent. But when you have a young pitcher and don't give her the confidence that you will make plays behind her, it gets rough out there.

Schroeder threw a really good game and you have to give her credit. She comes out and competes every game and you can't afford to not come out mentally and physically prepared to play your best game.

We have really been stinging the ball lately. When we are aggressive at the plate and use good pitch selection, we are a team that can definitely pound the ball.

Our defense was solid and Smith pitched a good game.

Jose pitched a great ball game and it carried over.
