He fought pretty hard. They had a lot of flares and Texas Leaguers. This gives us a good reference of where we are.

I loved the way we fought back. We could have tanked it when we got behind 5-0. We're playing the defending (Class M) champions.

He could have had one or two runners doubled off on the line drive, but didn't throw the ball for some reason. He struck the next batter out before facing John.

We won't see a better pitcher all season.

They strung together a couple of hits and we made some mental mistakes and a couple of errors. It was tough to come back from that.

Coming into today our league was 24-7. It's going to make us a better team, but somehow we have to get those eight wins to make the state tournament.

The kids played hard, but we've got to break through and win one of these games. I said from the beginning that we will be tough by the end of the season and I still believe it.

It was an absolute perfect throw. If he doesn't make that play it's 5-4 with runners at second and third and one out. It was a big play.
