We weren't good at the plate tonight. We had terrible approaches. Not to take anything away from Mike Cisco, but up and down the lineup, we didn't have enough quality at-bats.

Vanderbilt, since Tim has been there, they've been built around their pitching. They did a really good job of helping those kids develop and they've done a good job of recruiting their pitching.
approaches days good job kids offense phases playing three
We did a good job of playing offense three days in a row. I thought our kids had good approaches at the plate. (Sunday), just like Friday, we had all three phases of the game: Pitching, defense, offense - I thought we did OK.
challenge good guys playing record relaxed returning shows state team together
Obviously, our record isn't very good, but we are working hard. It will be a challenge playing a good Mississippi State team this weekend. They have so many returning players, and they've got a lot of guys that have been together for a long time. That shows in the relaxed way they play.

Chris has been good the last two weekends for us on Sunday. We had to take him off Friday and move him back to allow him to get his work in between starts. He doesn't bounce back and recover quick.

You have to credit Chris because he's tried to work through it. He just has a hard time getting all his work in. We just want to see Chris be at 100 percent. Hopefully, he made a step forward for that this week and he'll be good enough to go this weekend.

That's part of being a freshman. He's had some really good bats at times, some really bad at-bats. It's part of the learning process.
changes good job kids night played today
Every one of the kids that was in the lineup today has played well. I'm not going to make lineup changes after one night of us not doing a very good job of making adjustments.
breath deep deliver good guys instead matter maybe relax trying
It's a matter of having guys relax and not try to do so much. They just need to take a deep breath and try to make good contact. Sometimes, everyone is trying to deliver that blow, maybe trying to do too much instead of relaxing.
bats good swinging
We know how good they are on the mound, and they've been swinging the bats of late.

Woodall was outstanding. He had total command of the mound and three pitches. They got one good swing on him, but other than that, they didn't take any good swings at him.
balls bat bottom errors florida four good hit line name playing solid swung talented team though throughout
I though we had good at-bats throughout the day. We had four errors to their one and that's the name of the game. We swung the bat well throughout the day and hit a lot of balls hard. The bottom line is you have to play solid defense, especially when you are playing a team as talented as Florida State.

They're disappointed to lose the game. You go into the weekend expecting to win every game, and our kids played their guts out and competed their butts off. And they came up short against a good Kentucky team.
