farther game games good kept news shot
I think if we could have kept the game close, we'd have had a shot because we were having good at-bats. We thought we'd be a little farther along. The good news is there are a lot of games ahead.
allow games great impressive straight
It is not often you play two straight games and allow no runs. Lance pitched great today. He was very impressive considering it was his first collegiate start. He pitched with a lot of confidence.
ahead clutch hitters timely walk
Crawford got ahead of hitters and made clutch pitches. He didn't walk that many, and we weren't able to get the timely hit like we did in the first game.
few guy last playing slow weeks
He's a guy who got off to a slow start, but if we're going to make any kind of run, we're going to need him. The last few weeks he's really been playing well.
beat bottom credit line remaining six tough
You've got to give them a lot of credit, being down 3-1 with only six outs remaining and they're at the bottom of their lineup. It's a tough one to swallow, but the bottom line is they beat us.
doubt figure pitch
There's no doubt Tommy has to pitch for us in some capacity. We've got to figure out what that's going to be.
baseball both false good seen sides
Baseball is so much about confidence. How you feel about your swing, your pitching. I don't think it's a false confidence. We know we have to play well to win. We didn't play well in March. We've seen both sides of it, which I think is a good thing.
coach
That isn't something that just coach Polk and me decide.
almost amazing baseball deal ground lose losing sweep swept team
A sweep is a just a big blow. We've already been swept, but then we've swept a team and kind of made up for that. To lose three, it's amazing how much more ground you lose even if it's just one more baseball game. It's almost two games. It's a big deal (to win) after losing the first two.
happens reason
That happens sometimes, and there's no real reason for it. This was more like us.
command terrific
Cisco was terrific tonight. His command was brilliant.
field pitch
I'm not disappointed in the loss, but in the way we lost. We just didn't pitch or field all night.
class compete continue dan last losses nation needs obviously position shows work
Obviously we addressed some needs after the losses we had from last year's team. To have the eighth-ranked class in the nation shows the work that Dan McDonnell has done to keep us in a position to continue to compete nationally.
anybody best deserves friday game gives moved opportunity pitch reason role win
The reason he got moved to the Friday role is that he gives us the best opportunity to win the game of anybody we've got. He deserves to pitch on Friday.
