again calamity errors fire lack league next played plays team today week
It was a calamity of errors on plays that you have to make. I am embarrassed at how we played and our lack of fire when we got down early. We are a much better team than we showed today and will demonstrate that when we play them again next week in our league opener.
behind close closing critical errors game good pitcher shaky strong tough
Vanessa pitched a pretty good game and was strong at times and a little shaky at times. But it's tough on a young pitcher when you are close to closing out a game and then there are errors behind you at critical situations.
afford best credit game good mentally physically prepared threw
Schroeder threw a really good game and you have to give her credit. She comes out and competes every game and you can't afford to not come out mentally and physically prepared to play your best game.
batter change control form great needed plate rise sets uses
Schroeder is in post-season form and we let her control the game. She sets up the batter very well and uses a great rise and change up. We needed to make adjustments at the plate and didn't do it.
against behind coming confidence game gets handle pitcher plays rough throwing
Vanessa was throwing really well coming into the game and we wanted to see how she would handle a game against this kind of opponent. But when you have a young pitcher and don't give her the confidence that you will make plays behind her, it gets rough out there.
ball curve game good job moving solid using
Vanessa pitched a solid game using a good curve and did a good job moving the ball in and out.
beat best exactly facing focused game next pitchers played playing practiced three today top valley yesterday
We played today exactly like we practiced yesterday and we can't get away with playing at anything other than the top of our game the next three games. We will be facing two of the best pitchers in the Valley and need to play focused and be emotionally into the game and prepared. When we play focused and disciplined, we can beat anyone.
against ashley came game good huge quality win
That was a huge win for us against a real quality team. Ashley pitched a very good game and Jocelyn (Medina) came up with the big hit.
anyone bad beat bottom confidence five good innings league line negative played players positive pull talent team though today turn undefeated wait wins
We played five bad innings and had one good inning. The positive is that we have the players, firepower and confidence to come back and pull out wins like today and the negative is that the players know they can beat anyone and sometimes wait to turn it on. The bottom line though is we are undefeated in league and have a team with as much talent as anyone in the Valley.
compete hang heads last proved sun tomorrow
We can't hang our heads and tomorrow the sun will come up and we will still be in first place. We proved that last inning that we can compete but just need to get it going earlier.
came clutch hits job needed nice nicole plate
Nicole did a nice job at the plate today. She came up with clutch hits when we needed them.
aspect focus game great highest league level mental performance playing reach realize runs scoring sloppy starting time week
League play is starting in a week and we can't have another sloppy performance like this. Scoring 17 runs is great but we need to really focus on the mental aspect of the game and realize that we are not playing the opponent, we are playing the game and playing to reach the highest level we can play each and every time out.
gets good happen job
When Jody does her job and gets on base, good things happen for us.
forward looking opportunity playing seeing
We were really looking forward to the opportunity to play Buchanan and seeing just where we were. I really like how we are playing and think we would have responded to the challenge, but will now just have to wait.
