We lost a close game last night because we didn't get enough offense. I thought we could get some momentum going by playing small ball early on.

The longer the game goes on, the stronger he gets. Things can frustrate him, but he does a good job of battling back. He does a good job of hitting his spots.

That's the most we scored in a conference game. We're hitting well and playing good defense. It's good to win the conference outright.

I don't think that we had any errors today. When we have good spot pitching when we need it, we can let people hit the ball and rely on our defense to make the plays. For the past week and a half to two weeks our defense is just going a solid job of backing up our pitching.

You'd like to have some more offensive production but we hit a little more than we've hit the past week or so. We've seen some good competition and hopefully those bats will start coming around a little more for us.

He's one of those kids that the longer the game goes on he just seems to get stronger. He was a little bit frustrated with himself at times. He's a little bit harder on himself than I am on him. Things can frustrate him a little bit but he just does a good job of battling back. When you think he's going to hit a wall, he does a good job of finding the pitches that we have to have to get it out of it.
