We swung the bats well and pitched really well. The guys have been doing what we ask them to do. Our Achilles heel is definitely the defensive end. We have two or three pop up in one inning. That is a sign of a young team and we are a very young team.

We swung the bats well this week.

Overall everyone swung the bats and did everything right,

We swung the bats well against them. We're going to have to do it (Tuesday). Each game is different, each inning is different, so we just have to adjust and make sure we have a good plan.

We didn't come out flat. They came out and swung the bats well. How can a team come out flat when we know what's on the line? It's Sept. 21 and we're 11/2 games out. They jumped out on us and never let up. They kept their foot on our neck and never let us breathe.

It took us a little while, but we swung the bats well tonight,
