allowed bit fifth four great lost starts threw tired
Jake threw a great game. He tired a bit in the fifth and lost a little of his control, but in four starts he still hasn't allowed a run.

We need to defend our home field better. We talked about pride and defending our home turf and getting ready for a big week next week. Hopefully this game will be a springboard to next week.

That was one of the best plays I've seen an outfielder make. He took a possible double away from them.
came great job matt needed pick
Matt did a great job out there. We needed him to pick us up and he came through for us.
add came couple early hold hoping opponents opposition philosophy pressure puts score short zero
Our philosophy is to score in the first inning and then hold our opponents for zero in the first inning and we've done that. We did that a couple of (games) ago and came out on the short end so I really want us to get up early in the game. That puts the pressure on the opposition and we've done that, but we didn't add on like I was hoping we would.
best came fantastic gave great hitters jeff job meat nick order pop
Jeff Holm did a great job. We really don't know what we're going to get from him (sometimes), but he came in (this game) and just did a fantastic job. With the meat of their order up and getting Nick Herrera, one of the best hitters in the area, to pop out was great. That gave us momentum.
allow coming credit early guys ton
I give a ton of credit to our guys for coming back. We were down early and we could've folded the tents, but we didn't allow that to happen.

We're pretty much getting on his back. We told him going into the year that he's going to be our guy.

Jake did a phenomenal job. Got ahead of hitters, made them hit his pitches and our defense played very well behind him ? typical early-season game where pitchers are dominant. We were very fortunate to get this win.

Greg is a move-in from Oregon who can pitch and play third base. Plus, he's a left-handed hitter.
ahead behind defense gets hit pitches plays
He gets ahead of hitters, makes them hit his pitches and our defense plays very well behind him.
afraid balls couple early games kick ourselves pride
We're not afraid to kick a couple of balls around early in games and get ourselves in a hole. We take so much pride in our defense, but for some reason, we're snake-bitten when we play at home.
ball base caught cold defended excited great kids needed played threw
We played great defense. It's cold (out here), but our kids defended very well. We threw the ball to the right base and we caught the ball when we needed to. I'm excited about that.
ball good pitching playing runs score
We know that we're not going to score a lot of runs so we're doing the little things at this point. We're playing defense, we're pitching the ball well and we're just doing good things.
