adds bit good
That adds a little bit to it. I know that we'll have to be very good this weekend.
fortunate time win
(Campbell's) been here a long time and he's come up with some big hits. We were very fortunate to win this game.
best caught good happened hate played playing team time today
I just hate doubleheaders in general. But it had nothing to do with what happened today. We played a team today that's very, very good and we caught them at a time when they're playing their best baseball.
good less pitchers quicker throw
Because of our good defense, it allows our pitchers to get out of an inning quicker and throw less pitches.
bullpen came game light ready room saturday table threw today training type
Honeycutt was scheduled to go and he got sick. He came in Saturday and threw a light bullpen to get ready and before the game today he was on the training room table with some type of virus.
arguably best innings pitch three
He pitched three innings out of 29 (against Kentucky). If he's our best guy, and arguably he is right now, we need to pitch him more innings.
confidence game
If he's not in the game, he's in the game when it's on the line. That's how much confidence I have in him right now.
experience game great guy needs positive turn
He's a guy we think a lot of. He needs this game. Hopefully, it'll turn out a very positive game for him. But even still it's going to be a great experience for him.
bishop doubt environment nice ready saw sign thick tough type
I doubt he ever saw that sign at Bishop England. But he's in the fire. He's a tough kid. He's got thick skin, and he's ready for this type of environment and did a nice job.
games good half happy time win won
I'm not disappointed at all. Any time you don't win a game, you're not happy about it. We've won 11 games through the first half of the season, and that's pretty good in this league.
programs stick successful teams
I like it the other way; I like the stability. But there are a lot of teams that make changes. There are many very successful programs that don't always stick with their rotation.
good hard job sunday today win
You win the first two, you want to do a good job on Sunday and try to get the sweep. But it's hard to do, and we just weren't able to do it today because of Crawford.
alabama best good group people pitching quality seen
Alabama is really good. They have quality pitching and have good people in the bullpen. They may have the best group in the league. I haven't seen everyone yet.
alabama beginning best coach couple gotten guys hitting picked quality since starters
Alabama is really good. They have quality pitching, and have couple of guys in the bullpen, and their hitting has really, really picked up since the beginning of the year. Coach Wells and his guys have just gotten better and better since Day 1. They may have the best starters in the league.
