good hitting independence win
Independence is a good hitting team. This is a big win for us.
ball bunch hit nice plays walks
We just need to keep this going. We just want to hit the ball and make plays like we've been doing. We didn't give up a bunch of walks which is always nice to see going into the playoffs.
answer clutch far hits looking teams
We're still looking to get clutch hits and we've had some at times. So far we've been able to answer when teams get runs.
balance great hard hit kept maybe
He did a great job. He kept them off balance all night. They had maybe one hard hit all night. They were just overmatched.
hitter pitches somebody threw
He probably threw more pitches than we would have liked. We would have put somebody else in, but he had a no hitter going, so we let him have it.
ball close experience game great pitchers saw threw
It was a great experience to play a close ball game like that. We saw two pitchers who threw very well.
early jump nice score
It was nice to jump out early but sometimes when we don't do that we don't score after.
battling good lost pitches sore thrown
Shawn really did a good job. He's been battling a sore arm, and he'd thrown around 90 pitches and we could see he lost some zip on his fastball.
bat early faced few settled starter swinging three walked
(Shawn had a few jitters early - walked the first two he faced - but he settled down. He's our no. three starter and he's swinging the bat well too.
bad kids knew played stepped
The kids knew we played bad the day before and they stepped up.
both confident high school throw
We feel very confident with those two on the mound. Both can throw in the upper 80s and throw it right by 80-percent of high school hitters.
decent
If we can just play better defense. We can be a pretty decent club.
came charlie consider lee night threw usual
I wouldn't consider it an off night necessarily. But Charlie just didn't have his usual stuff. But Lee came in and threw well.
bats fastball good lee swung threw
(Lee) threw his fastball well. They swung the bats well still but Lee did a good job.
