count early great kenny knew pitch season
I knew Kenny had a no-hitter, but his pitch count was getting up there. He was doing a great job, but it's early in the season and I didn't want to keep him in there too long.
count defense guys pitch ran toughest
(Beck's) one of the toughest guys in the conference. We ran up his pitch count to over 100 and had some opportunities, but our defense let us down.
ball early kid season threw true
Their kid threw the ball well as well. It was a true early season pitchers' battle.
add early importance kids preach relying runs scoring
We preach to our kids about the importance of scoring early and relying on our pitching. We were able to do that today, but we didn't add runs like I would have liked.
gives goes guys happen hard nice respond surprised time trouble
It was kind of nice to see (Jake) get in a little trouble early. He had guys on base, but I wanted to see how he'd respond to that because he hasn't had that happen to him. But he's a bulldog. He goes out there, gives you everything he's got every time and he's a hard guy to take out of the game. I was surprised that I had to go get him, but he was out of gas.
came great job matt needed pick
Matt did a great job out there. We needed him to pick us up and he came through for us.
allow coming credit early guys ton
I give a ton of credit to our guys for coming back. We were down early and we could've folded the tents, but we didn't allow that to happen.
best came fantastic gave great hitters jeff job meat nick order pop
Jeff Holm did a great job. We really don't know what we're going to get from him (sometimes), but he came in (this game) and just did a fantastic job. With the meat of their order up and getting Nick Herrera, one of the best hitters in the area, to pop out was great. That gave us momentum.
best double plays possible seen took
That was one of the best plays I've seen an outfielder make. He took a possible double away from them.
