We've been having some problems with our hitting, but we're working on that. Again, our pitching and defense have pulled us through. Jessica always pitches well for us.

It's nice when they pull together to help someone.
ball defense definitely few game hard hats hit strong
Our defense is definitely our strong point. Hats off to Southeast. They hit the ball hard a few times ... That play to end the game -- that was a shot.

Courtney made some great plays for us tonight. She chased down two of them that probably prevented runs.

We needed somebody to come in there and stop them. And what she did was huge.
angles bats catch confident early great kids season taking took
She took a great angle. We've been stressing that. Early on in the season we weren't taking great angles ... The kids can play defense, we just need our bats to catch up. We need to get confident at the plate.

She shows no emotion on the mound. I can't read her. I don't think her dad (who calls her pitches from the sideline) can read her.
field leader
She's a leader all the way through, on and off the field.

She's nails. She gets out there and gets into her own little zone.

She's a great defensive player in right field. She's just a great kid. She's someone that we're looking forward to coming back. We can put her anywhere.

One of my quotes for the girls today was, 'Leave your silver platters at home, because we're not giving them anything. Then we gave up the first one ... I reminded them to put their silver platters away.

We only had 10 girls for a couple of games. It went through the whole team.

It just shows you how funny this game is. You can not get a hit and still be in the game if your pitching and defense does well.

With this being the only game for us this week, I don't know whether they got comfortable or what. Hats off to Lemon Bay though, they came out ready to play.
