confidence games guys hits hopefully hurts obviously three throwing
Obviously it hurts us not having our big guys in there. Hopefully we get them back soon. But we have a lot of confidence in the guys we're throwing out there. If we hit, we're going to win. We're not going to win too many games getting three hits and one run.
