We struggled handing the ball off (last year). (Fisk) does a good job pitching the ball. We had some fumbles last year that had nothing to do with the Option. The other night it was the same thing.

He was one of our top pitching recruits last year. He's had a few relief outings and struggled some. We know he has potential, but it's a mind thing with him. He needs to gain confidence at this level.

I'm sure he'd like to end the year pitching, knowing Woody. If we can get him in there, we'll try to do that.

It's something that we struggled with all year long is taking care of the ball against pressure. They exploited that tonight.

Best team I've ever played on. We had lights-out pitching all year, and everybody was crushing the ball.

The pitching was solid. Jake did a good job of getting out of that inning. If we're going to do anything state-wise, we've got to have Jake throwing well.
