bit chance consistent good guys job last settled struggled throwing
The big thing is throwing consistent strikes. If our guys can do that, they're going to have a chance to succeed. For the most part we did a good job of that. Cody in that last inning struggled a little bit with his command, settled down and made some adjustments and got them out.
base bat behind bit develop helps job plate played time
J.P. played some first base in college. That helps a lot. We'll be able to get his bat in the lineup a little bit more. Now it's my job to find them enough time behind the plate to try to develop them, too.
bases bat guys looks pop steal year
It looks like we have some guys that can run, looks like we can steal some bases again. I think we have a little more pop in the bat this year in the lineup than we've had in the past.
games good outcome pitching playing positive start supposed three wins
We've done a lot of good things these three games to be positive about. The outcome wasn't what we wanted but if we keep playing that way and getting good pitching and playing the way we're supposed to play, the wins will start coming.
bats bit care defense pitch swung win
We didn't pitch very well or play defense very well. We swung the bats a bit better but when you don't pitch well and don't take care of the baseball, you're not going to win many games.
