came chance conditions four game good great guys pitch situation
I thought the four guys that came out of the bullpen, with the conditions the way they were today, and the situation of the game how it was when they came in, did a great job. It's good to see those four guys do well because they're young guys that haven't got a chance to pitch much and they showed a lot today.

direction game hard learning strides using

It was huge for us. After blowing a game on Friday and then getting boat-raced on Saturday, these guys showed some character. They hung in there and they bounced back.

I'm encouraged that we fought back and had a chance to win the game. (But) there were two simple plays that we didn't make earlier that hurt us.
definitely guy hat quality tip
I've got to tip my hat to Lacy because he definitely pitched well today. He is a guy they look to to give them a lot of quality innings, and he was really competitive today.
