Any time you have to run a decent amount away (to field a ground ball), those plays get a lot tougher, just because it's a tougher ground ball to begin with. And then you have to make sure to try not to rush (the throw), because you want to make sure you get the first out, always.

Whatever happened last year to propel us to the run that we made, it's really carried over to this year. Guys expect to win ball games and that's showing up in the plays we're making.

We'd like to be more consistent as a team, and hopefully we'll score enough runs to give our pitchers a chance. We scored 10 runs (Wednesday), but if we don't come back (today) and put some runs on the board, what does it really help?
