center craig game great today
Craig Gentry is a great center fielder and today was a game of little things.
awful credit deserve hard players pull work
The players deserve an awful lot of credit for their approach. They work hard to pull each other through.
difficult loss
This was a difficult loss for a lot of reasons. And they were all hard.
bunch guys hard help playing
When you look up and down the order, there were a bunch of different guys contributing and that's very positive. We still have a long way to go, but our guys are playing hard and doing some of the little things well. That will help us in the big picture.
develop spot stage
We need to develop that spot at this stage in the season.
learn ran
We just ran out of outs today. We'll take that and learn from it.
coming hardest high learn level pitcher school sign
One of the hardest things for a pitcher coming out of high school to this level is to learn to back off of the velocity. He has learned. That's a sign of maturity.
advantage bryan game kept pitching
Bryan kept us in the game by pitching to advantage counts.
ball contribute guys obviously order production success top
The production at the top of our order was a big part of the success today. So many different guys contribute on a ball club, but obviously you want to look at the production of guys who are capable, with experience, of doing that.
asset ball hard hope matt time tremendous worked
We hope to think (he'll be back in time for Arkansas). Matt has worked very hard on the rehab. Obviously, he'll be a tremendous asset back to the ball club.
bats critical defend field game good great job short starting swung
I thought that we swung the bats better tonight. We also did a great job with our short game and we pitched through some adversity. We are starting to defend the field better, which is critical to being a good club.
ball character elevated forward game great guys plays pleased push quality selective stepped
I was very pleased with the way Tommy Wynn stepped forward and pitched us out of some jams. I thought we made quality plays to keep the game close, but we elevated too many balls. We have to be more selective and put the ball on the ground. These guys have great character and will push through.
ball bat hit hooked means people swung
I thought we swung the bat well tonight. We hit the ball right at people and hooked a couple, which means we need to keep it fair.
ball believe forward ground guys pressure step
We've got to step up and find a way to put the ball in play. We need to put the ball on the ground and pressure defenses. We've got to have guys step forward and we will. I believe that.
