ability anywhere ball changing defense fooling good mean morgan speeds work
Leah is good at changing her speeds up and really fooling a batter. Morgan will play infield and back Leah up, so that's always helpful. But Leah, I mean she really has the ability to put the ball anywhere and give our defense something to work with.
bat bunch college hard rivals speed teach tools worker
She's got some tools that not many have. She's a hard worker and she's strong. Her bat speed probably rivals a bunch of college kids. She's aggressive, and right now, those are things you can't teach as a coach.
chance gave good morgan swing third threw valuable work
She is valuable to us, because she can swing the bat, play third and pitch. It gave us a chance to work her in. Morgan threw a good ballgame.
ability coming experience good last looking players solid takes team waiting works
We've got experience coming back, we've got some solid players and I'm really looking for this team to do some good things this season. I really think we have the ability to get back where we were last year, but it's still a waiting game. We'll have to see how everything works out, and that takes a little time.
bad bat happy hitting job swung win
I'm not happy with the way we swung the bat today. We swung at some bad pitches. We will have to do a better job of hitting if we want to play a long time, but for the most part it was a win and I'm not going to take anything away from that.
hits risk runner seemed thrown
It seemed like we got a lot of two-out hits in this game. You can't risk getting the runner thrown out when you already have two outs.
against ball early good great hit kids nice runs score
It was nice to get started on the right foot. It's good to score runs early against a good ball club. ...The kids hit the ball well early. It was just a great start.
anytime beat front team
Anytime you beat a team that was in front of you, you've got to feel pretty good.
continue destiny games good happen motto teams win worry
As a coach, you always like the idea of controlling your own destiny. That's been our motto all year, just to go out and win our games and not worry about what other teams are doing. If we continue to win the games that we play, only good things will happen for us in the long run.
expect good job kids spend time
The kids expect to make plays. It's a lot of concentration. We spend a lot of time working on fundamentals and they do a good job of that.
earned money
They made a lot of catches tonight; they earned their money out there.
clutch coming hits kids producing scoring tells
Two, big clutch hits. We had three, two-run hits and that tells me that we have kids coming up and producing in scoring situations.
next sure team
Farmington is a young team. I'm sure it's not the same team we're going to see next week.
advantage bats brought coach dance swing
We are going to dance with who brought us here. We like to swing the bats more. Any coach would take advantage of what they have in abundance.
