We've been working at the hitting aspect. I think we had eight hits in our first game but just really didn't swing that well. Today, we did.

We played a triangle-and-two the last eight minutes of the game, and they didn't score.

I don't think I could really talk about this (the TV aspect of working a big game) before the 1985 World Series when I was working (on ABC replacing Howard Cosell) with Al (Michaels) and Jim (Palmer). I don't think I could tell you how to do a big game.

We had that lead, and then the next possession they made an easy entry pass. That's when it really started to go downhill.

I think she even scared herself today by hitting the ball so well. Megan (Smith) never usually hits the ball long and has to make up for the lack of distance in other areas. Right now, though, she's hitting the ball well.

The hits are nice, but the important thing for me is I was hitting the ball hard, ... I had a rough night and I had to correct  things.
