He did a great job. He kept them off balance all night. They had maybe one hard hit all night. They were just overmatched.

We feel very confident with those two on the mound. Both can throw in the upper 80s and throw it right by 80-percent of high school hitters.
ball bunch hit nice plays walks
We just need to keep this going. We just want to hit the ball and make plays like we've been doing. We didn't give up a bunch of walks which is always nice to see going into the playoffs.

(Lee) threw his fastball well. They swung the bats well still but Lee did a good job.

Lee did a good job and threw a lot of strikes.

I wouldn't consider it an off night necessarily. But Charlie just didn't have his usual stuff. But Lee came in and threw well.
ball batter breaking seven worked
His breaking ball worked really well. Seven of his 12 strikeouts, the batter went down looking, didn't swing. A lot of those were on his breaking ball.
beat best
But if we want to be the best we have to beat the best.

(Charlie) is a little more poised and confident this year. Not that he's cocky, but he knows that if he throws his fastball for strikes, he'll be successful.

He struggled a little. But that ended quickly.
good hitting independence win
Independence is a good hitting team. This is a big win for us.

He probably threw more pitches than we would have liked. We would have put somebody else in, but he had a no hitter going, so we let him have it.
fine
It's a fine line. But I think we're still pretty well-focused.
