fired games good guys national nice recognizes start understand
While it's nice to get some national recognition, all that really recognizes is that we got off to a good start our first 14 games and nothing more. Our guys understand that. They're not going to be all that fired up about it.
balls early falling hard hit hitting matter nose start time
We were hitting balls right on the nose early on. It was those instances where you hit 'em right at guys. When you keep hitting balls as hard as we were, it's just a matter of time before they start falling (for hits).
contact expect forced starts threw top
He was outstanding. He threw strikes, he forced contact and he was on top of his game. I think we'll expect more starts out of him before the year's out.
start
Ian Harrington will start one game. After that, it is TBA. I haven't thought about it yet.
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.
waiting

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.

We're definitely going to need all the help we can get when you look at Schmidt's numbers.
couple cruise edge last playing putting seven sustain
We had a little edge and were able to sustain it once we got the 5-1 lead. The way we've been playing the last couple weeks, we've been going into cruise control. But we were able to keep it going, putting up the seven runs.

Our fans will get to see another guy that's listed among the top few pitchers in college baseball that's draft-eligible. He's a guy who's supposed to have electric stuff.
injuries last playing pleasant root
Robbie is playing with a sense of urgency, making things happen. That is very pleasant to see. You have to root for Robbie because of the injuries he has had the last two years.

Justin wasn't trying to overpower people and get strikeouts. He had to stay within himself and learned that.

Just tip your hat to those guys (and) come out and try to win again tomorrow.
