We took the lead in the fifth but they came right back and put some runs up. Rogers had some timely hits and they had base runners every inning.
four good guys held hits lead pitching proud runners scoring solid timely took
We had two solid pitching performances, good defense, and timely hits with runners in scoring position. I was proud of our guys the first game, when we were down four and just chipped away and chipped away, took the lead and held on.
bats game hits hitting needed plays swung timely win
That was a much better game, offensively. We swung the bats well enough to keep us in the game and we made the plays when we needed too. Timely hitting is what is going to win games. We got the timely hits when we needed them.
baseball came easy kept looked mentally motions physically prepared proud ready stay telling time
I'm proud of them. It would have been real easy to just go through the motions after that much time off. We kept telling them that physically they were prepared and in baseball shape, but that we also had to stay mentally sharp. Tonight, they looked mentally sharp. They came out ready to play.

Two conference wins - we'll take them any way we can. We just battled back, chipped away and were able to score some more runs.

Hopefully we'll continue to play well and earn a spot.

You get those two guys on and then you have some pretty good hitters coming up behind them who have a good chance of scoring some runs. Those two (Wallace and Barnes) combined have been a big part of our offense because of their ability to get on. Brandt has done great.

That's what we need this time of the year. We need to be hitting the ball and we had a good time at the plate. We're making plays and pitchers are throwing strikes. This is when we need that to happen and it's starting to come together. Hopefully we'll keep it up.
