We've started hitting the ball better the last few weeks of the season and hopefully that will carry over. These type of games can turn at any moment so we have to play sound baseball.

We had good execution on the hit-and-run. We got some runs early that proved to be big later in the game.

Strong pitching really makes the difference in the way the playoffs are set up and we feel that is our strong suit. We are in a very tough playoff, but so is everyone else. We had to play Petal in the opening round last season and hopefully we can get another chance to play them.
