across balls basically fifth hit matter middle pitch playing threw tonight
Basically tonight we just did not pitch very well. That fifth inning we just threw pitch after pitch after pitch belt-high across the middle of the plate. Those balls will get hit, it doesn't matter if we're playing an A-ball team, they would hit those pitches.
hit rather walking
He's been walking a lot. We'd rather he hit it out of the ballpark, but other than that a walk's all right.
bases chances hit
We had a lot of chances to score, but we can't get a hit with the bases loaded. I think we're 0-for-the-year with the bases loaded.
cold definitely hitting hope
I hope so, because it won't be cold all year. We're definitely not hitting on all cylinders.
came clutch couple hits kelly
Don Kelly came up with a couple clutch hits for us tonight.
coming few hits maybe next
There was no way we could be that bad. Maybe we've got a few hits coming to us the next few days.
ball everybody pitch quality strike threw zone
We didn't pitch well all the way around, didn't make any quality pitches. Colby was up in the strike zone and couldn't keep the ball down. But everybody threw like that.
given might
We didn't know anything about Lee, and we might not have given him enough respect.
bring excited fans support
We couldn't have done it without the support of the fans and we are excited to get out there and try to bring another championship back to Toledo.
bullpen feeling gone good guys miner pitches strikes thrown
Miner pitched well, and the guys in the bullpen have thrown strikes and gone after guys. They're making some pitches when they have to. I'm really feeling good right now about the way the bullpen has pitched in these first two games.
bats energy good obviously swinging takes
Obviously we're not swinging the bats good right now. And when you don't swing the bats good, it takes away from the energy of the club.
bad guys looks swinging
Right now it looks as if we're pressing. Guys are swinging at a lot of bad pitches. And when we're getting a pitch, we're not doing anything with it.
front late stuck
We're not centering. We've been late on the fastballs and out in front of the off-speed pitches. We're stuck in the middle.
far rough series starter
We need a starter to go deep. It's been a rough series for the bullpen, but so far they've been up to the task.
