last league situation
We're in last place now in the league. Twenty-nine years we've never been in this situation in this league at 2-6, I know that. Right now, we're just not very good.
dominated game last quick seven sure thankful
That's how quick a game can change. We dominated for seven innings, but we sure didn't do much the last two innings. I was disappointed with that, but thankful to get the win.
balls drop five fly game giving last letting pitch runs seemed six throwing wrong
I mean, we've scored 12 runs in the last five games. It was another weak, anemic night, more of the same. It's just we were never in the game after we couldn't pitch and keep them under control. Once we started giving up runs, letting fly balls drop and throwing to the wrong base, down by six runs seemed like 60.
brown catch caught last matt performs plays surprises time
I have no idea how he caught that ball. You can't say enough about Matt Brown and how he plays the outfield. There's nothing about the way he performs that surprises me, but every time he makes a catch like that, it's better than the last one.
amazing miserable offensive pitchers proud runs sixth tone within
Our pitchers set a miserable tone from the outset. We got burned. The amazing thing is we were within two runs of being run-ruled in the sixth inning. I'm really proud of our offensive team. It didn't quit, it didn't give up.
absolutely except perfect rob
Rob was perfect the whole day except for one inning. Absolutely perfect.
great
I think he's got real promise, ... He's loose, and he's got a great swing.
gave runs
I was very disappointed with Kris Johnson's (outing). I think he was a little shell-shocked when he gave runs because he pitched well in our intra-squad games.
injuries
We have a lot of depth. We can withstand some injuries and not be devastated.
bunt good great needed runs second tyler
We did some good things today. Tyler Weber got a great bunt down in the second inning. We did what we needed to do, and we got the runs home. That was huge.
miserable tone
We set a miserable tone from the start.
We squandered some opportunities, but some of that may have been their pitching.
gotten looked starting time
He's gotten better every time out, and that's really a plus. Today, he was starting to feel comfortable (and) he looked comfortable.
everybody excited fastball good hit knew
He hit that fastball about as good as you can hit it. When he hit it, I knew it was gone. I don't know if everybody else did, but I knew. It excited me.
