afford baseball books bright career coaching devote focus full future gets main robert round staff time tools towards year
Robert could have a bright future on the baseball diamond. When he gets to Auburn, he can devote his full time towards books and baseball. With that coaching staff up there, they will afford him the tools he need for his career to take off. Baseball will be his main focus year round so only the thing he can do is get better.

I want everyone who can, to come out and support us. This fundraiser is important to us. We have been successful in the past with the community giving up tremendous help.
came ready
They came ready to play. They pounded us pretty good.
chance further great last plenty work
We feel we have a great chance to get back where we were last year. We can also go even further with plenty of work and dedication.
break good guys ready rested stretch time winning wonderful
This break comes at a good time for us. It would have been wonderful to go into it on a winning note. We need this time to get our guys rested and ready to go for the stretch run.
against ahead backs complete expect pitchers played region tough wall work
This is a tough region that we play. We can't put our backs against the wall like this and expect to win. They made our pitchers work and got ahead in the counts. They played a complete game.
ball came games guys hitting several
I can't say enough about our guys and the way they came out to play. We're hitting the ball real well and that's something we need to keep doing because we'll have several more games like this left.
game guys perfect
I told the guys it wasn't perfect, but it was as perfect a game as we've had in a long time.
catch effort shut team
In years past, we'd get a big lead, shut down and let the other team catch up. We didn't quit, and that's the kind of effort we'll need all year.
upside
If there is an upside to this game, it's that we didn't quit.
fastball record
I don't know if (the 12 strikeouts) is a record or not, but it's close. He really had his fastball working tonight.
defense glad region
We did not play defense well. We are going to have to get a whole lot better when we get back into region play. I am glad to get the win, but we made too many errors.
coming defense difference pitching team
We really didn't know a whole lot about this team coming into the game. We were a little off at the plate. Our defense and pitching made a difference for us to win.
