evident hard home last pitch pull rewarded strong work
He is so strong, and that was evident that last home run. He got jammed on the pitch and was strong enough to pull it out of the ballpark. That is good, hard work getting rewarded right there.
plays
And you shouldn't say many because it plays pretty true.
concentration defense excuses focus game pathetic simple witnessed
Our defense is just pathetic right now. At this level, there is no excuses for what we have witnessed and what we are witnessing. That is a simple part of the game and it has nothing to do with inexperience. It is a focus thing and a concentration thing.

We just didn't do our job on offense. We left too many guys on base and we didn't come through when we had scoring chances, and we got beat because of it.
daily improvement personally seeing surface team
I am disappointed because I see a team that is 4-8 right now and on the surface is struggling. But I personally am seeing more and more improvement on a daily basis.
figured season stage win
I am just disappointed that at this stage of the season we haven't figured out how to go about doing the things we need to do to win games.
