ball clutch early good happen hitting pressure putting striking
We got some clutch hitting in this one. It was good to see us put the ball in play and make things happen with two outs. We've been striking out some early on and now we're getting the ball in play and putting pressure on the defense.
ball blowing good ground hard hit hitters park swings today wind
We hit it well today. It was a hitters park today with the hard ground and the wind blowing out, but we put some good swings on the ball today.
advantage bats chances early generate good might move overall pitching problems runners saw seeing swinging team warm
We saw some opportunities where we could take advantage of it, because overall we have pretty good team speed. We'll probably have to move some runners around a lot early because we've had some problems making contact, not seeing much live pitching yet. That was also part of the reason. Hopefully, as the bats warm up a little bit, we might be able to take our chances swinging it. But right now we've got to try to generate something.
against ball came chance game good guys work
We got a chance to get those guys out there and get them some work in and that was big for us in a game like this. They came in and pitched well against a good ball club.
believed broke game good key open plays quit seventh teach top win
We kind of broke it open in the top of the seventh with some more key hits. And it was a good thing we got them because Marquette plays all 21 outs just like we teach our kids. They didn't quit and believed they could win the game in the seventh.
both doubt good hitting
They were both tattooed, there's not doubt about that. They're a good hitting team.
beaten good played season teams
Once we get going, it's every day. And that's what we like. We've played very well this season and beaten some good teams, but there are some more good teams coming.
good runs strides three types weeks
I think we've made good strides the three weeks we've had so far. We've got to be able to manufacture runs in all types of ways, so it will be real interesting to see how we do.
exciting good nice start
It got a little exciting there. It's nice to get off to a good start like this, especially in the conference.
bat batter coming given good hard kids rewarded swinging work
He's been coming on. When he's been given an opportunity, he's been swinging the bat batter lately. It's good to see kids get rewarded like that who work hard each day.
conference good kick last outside overall season though work
Overall it was good to get outside the last two days, even though it was cold. To get out here and work out a lot of the kinks before we kick off the conference season on Tuesday, I think it will make a big difference.
good threw
He was very good today. He threw a good game.
against blowing gave good hard hitting mound nice wind
He did a nice job. We pitched well, gave up some hits, but the wind was blowing out and it was a hard infield so it was fast, I thought we did well on the mound against a good hitting team.
athletic good job knocks last obviously year
He did a good job for us defensively last year and I think he's got more in him offensively. Once he knocks off the rust, he's obviously so athletic and he'll find a way to achieve.
