conference five four games guys reason
Five games in four days, that's a lot. The reason (for the long series) is to get guys out there before conference starts.
fish happens situation
Fish didn't have anything from the start, but it was the right move. If the same situation happens tomorrow, I'll do it again.
guys improve plenty
That's why I told our guys be happy, but don't be satisfied. We showed we have plenty of things we need to improve on.
aggressive approach early team
In the first inning, you could see their approach was to go with the pitch. But when they were doing their damage, they were the same team they've always been, which is very aggressive early in the count.
bad outside worry
I feel bad for (Landon) because he doesn't get the at-bats that he would've gotten. Outside of that, I don't worry about Harrington or any of our pitching.
bad draft good himself matt players pressure
Good players like Matt don't have two bad years in a row. He really put too much pressure on himself in his draft year.
command fall fastball freshman pitchers strikes throw work
Darrell couldn't throw strikes during the fall of his freshman year. We work so much with our pitchers in the fall on fastball command and his fastball is his No. 3 pitch.
himself justin learned people stay trying within
Justin wasn't trying to overpower people and get strikeouts. He had to stay within himself and learned that.
faith frost good job pitches rich steven swings tired
I thought Steven was a little empty. He was at 106 pitches and Frost was getting good swings off of him. Steven was getting a little tired and we had all the faith in Rich to get the job done.
credit diego felt good offensive san
I have to give credit to San Diego State. I felt they were a good offensive club.
cuts harder laid played relatively
For the most part, it (the surface) has played relatively fair, but it is getting harder and more frayed and with the cuts in the seams getting laid open, it is getting dangerous.
start
Ian Harrington will start one game. After that, it is TBA. I haven't thought about it yet.
swing
He's got to swing better than he's swinging, that's for sure.
catcher confident good job knows role
Landon knows his role and knows he is our catcher of the future. He is a confident kid. He has done a very good job as a freshman.
