We came out flat in the third quarter. We didn't play good defense and couldn't put the ball in the hole.

I thought well played well offensively. In order for us to go anywhere we have to play good team defense, we give up way to many open shots.

I'm his biggest fan. I'm not a defensive guy, but I would pay to watch him play defense.

We haven't had a lot of those innings all year. We know we can pitch and play solid defense, but when we can get innings like that, I like how this team looks.

You can play defense as long as you are aggressive and forcing, and I thought we did a good job of that in the first half of the game and not so much in the second. We had a lot of penalties, and I think that kind of reared its head in the third period because we looked a little tired. We fell behind 2-0, and a lot of that we did on our own, and we have to correct that to even the series on Thursday.

We didn't make routine plays. We played good offensively, (but) we didn't play good defense behind our pitchers.
