chance difference hopefully last opening pitching playoffs round season strong tough
Strong pitching really makes the difference in the way the playoffs are set up and we feel that is our strong suit. We are in a very tough playoff, but so is everyone else. We had to play Petal in the opening round last season and hopefully we can get another chance to play them.
april best biggest changes degrees far opening park seem sort sunny year
Every April is sort of like Christmas. Opening Day comes and the changes in the park every year seem to be better and better, and this year is by the far the biggest and best yet. To have a beautiful, sunny day and 65 degrees to show it off is just extraordinary.

We have a 6-year-old and an 86-year-old in this. It's open to anyone in the community. About half of my team will be there, but we still haven't had a great participation response to this from outsiders. I hope in the future this will become big and we can start a tradition.
adrenaline basketball bit bounce days defense excitement feeling fine good high locker opening reminded room rough school settled start
I got off to a little bit of a rough start to say the least. There was a lot of excitement and adrenaline being my first opening day start. It reminded me of my high school basketball days when we used to bounce around in the locker room before a game. That was the feeling I had. It was fine once I settled down and let my defense work. It was back to the good old Henry.

I'm sure it will be really strange for him. You can imagine when he steps out on the pitch everyone will go crazy - he was more than a great servant for this club. And I'm sure that if he has to put his foot in then he will!
kids learn lose performance thrilled tough
I'm thrilled with the performance, but disappointed to lose on a technicality. It's a tough way to learn a lesson, but it doesn't take anything away from the way the kids ran.
ability attacking fact grown impressive quality
I know the quality of these boys. All the youngsters have grown in confidence. With our attacking ability and especially -- what for me is the most impressive thing -- the fact we are not conceding goals, I can say we are cautiously optimistic.
forced needs scoring stopped
I know when we stopped them and got a turnover, then forced a three-and-out and were still down 14-10 that there was something wrong. That scoring needs tweaking.

I'm looking forward to the second half of September. How could you not want to be in a pennant race with the Yankees?
