anytime difficult enjoy great guys played proud road shower sweep weekend
It was a great weekend for us. Anytime you can go on the road and sweep a team, it is very difficult to do. I am really proud of the way the guys played today. It was a long day, and the guys are tired. We are going to go get a shower and enjoy our day off tomorrow.
gets good guys heath middle pitches threw
The thing about Heath is that when he gets into some jams, that's when he's at his best. When he gets guys on base, he focuses a little better. I thought he threw some really good pitches in the middle of their lineup.
beat bounce good gotten guys losing ready time tuesday winning won
Most of the year, every time we've gotten beat we've come back ready to play. We got beat 10-0 on Tuesday and we won 10-0 here today. And I can tell you I like the winning 10-0 than the losing 10-0. It was good to see our guys bounce back.
base certainly few good guys left ourselves ran scoring time
Obviously, I thought we could have scored a few more runs. We left a lot of guys on base and ran ourselves out of an inning. We certainly had the possibility of scoring more runs. But any time you can come away with a win, it is a good day.
guys heath pleased swung
We got up 7-0 and with Heath (Rollins) on the mound, you feel pretty comfortable. I'm pleased with the way we swung the bat. We had 10 different guys get hits.
advantage ballpark cheering fans fun great guys huge tremendous weekends
These are huge weekends and it would be a tremendous advantage if we could have 1,000 or 1,200 or even 1,500 fans at the ballpark cheering for us. It would be a great advantage to our guys. It would be so much more fun for our guys and the fans would have a great time.
clubs good typical
It was just kind of typical of the way the day went. We just didn't play very well. When you play good clubs and don't play very well you're going to get beat.
After that, we do have to find some answers.
conference good picture stand third three weekend weekends
This weekend is going to be the third in three big weekends for us and we'll have a very good picture of where we're going to stand in the conference after this weekend.
across ball blake good great hat plate problem strikes thrown throws tip today
Blake Martin's a great pitcher. The problem with him was that he hadn't thrown strikes in the past. Today he did. When he throws the ball across the plate he's a very, very good pitcher. You've got to tip your hat to him.
against forgiven tough wake
It would have been tough to take him out with a no-hitter against Wake Forest. I don't know if he'd ever have forgiven me if I'd done that.
game good hopefully offensive ready today tomorrow
They are a good offensive club, and today is just a start. It is only one game. We've said over and over, every day is a new day in the game of baseball. We have to come ready to play tomorrow, because I know they will. But it is a good win, so hopefully tomorrow we can come out and get another.
bat carried good hits swing swinging timely
Offensively, I am a little disappointed in how we've been swinging the bat this weekend. Fortunately, we've got good pitching, and that has carried us, but we need to get some more timely hits and swing the bat a little better.
allowed balls command decide great hurt seven throw
Actually, we wanted him to not go more than 80 (pitches) and he went 92, which I don't think is going to hurt him if we decide to come with him on Sunday. He had great command and didn't throw very many balls which allowed him to go seven innings.
