kicking maybe needed tail wake
Maybe we needed that kind of tail kicking to wake us up.
anybody beat friend good jim tail
Jim is a good friend of mine, but we want to beat their tail off just like anybody else we play.
aggressive ahead count situation
Braden got ahead in the count and that's a situation where he can really be aggressive and look for a fastball.
behind future michael obviously
Michael is obviously our future behind the plate.
future given nice opportunity perform role team
I think he's comfortable with his role for this team right now. But he is part of the future of this program, and it's nice to see that he was able to perform when given an opportunity today.
athletic certainly coming department everybody imagine momentum national rebels rooting shows whether
Whether everybody who shows up is rooting for the Rebels or not, I don't know, but certainly it will be exciting. I would imagine they would (travel well) coming off a national championship ... and just because of some of the momentum that their athletic department has.
bright early gave park runs side wind
We gave up some runs early and I thought, here we go again. The only bright side of it was when we're in our park and the wind is blowing, I always feel like we've got a chance.
ask both clubs good great omaha played rather teams
Certainly, if you ask me, I'd rather be 8-4 than 4-8, but we've played a great schedule. We've played some real good clubs both historically and currently; teams that have played in Omaha and that consistently play in the postseason.
ball struck
We've got to find a way to put the ball in play. We struck out 23 times in two days, and that is not tolerable.
game score scoring seventh timely
We've had opportunities to score and we've been in every game through the seventh inning. We haven't been able to get the timely hits. When you're not scoring runs, everything is magnified.
bats couple doubt next remedy swing win
You have got to win games, no doubt about it. There's no remedy like winning. We thought Friday's win (6-5 in 12 innings) would spearhead that. We thought we would come out and swing the bats the next couple of games, and we haven't done that.
continue luck point season turning
With any luck at all, this will be the turning point in our season and we can continue to play well.
answer giving momentum scratched
It's tough, after we scratched back. We have been giving up momentum runs. You score, you have to answer with a zero, and we did not do that.
advantage focused gave guys pitch stay took tough
It's tough for guys who are as competitive as McCulloch is to stay focused when they are up 10-0. It's tough for him to pitch in that situation, but we took advantage of the opportunities they gave us.
