That's the thing - we have to be able to stop the bleeding, and we haven't been able to do that in a couple of innings. If we eliminate those innings from both games, we are right there.

We are still early in the year, and I can't keep Alex out there seven innings. The same with Hunter. Our pitching isn't four deep, which is where we have a tough time.

They were throwing hard. It looked like we had a little lack of experience facing that.

We could never string a rally together. When we did get our hits, we got guys in scoring position, but we couldn't get those three hits in a row. And we don't have the home run hitters to get us three-run home runs. That's what we are struggling with now.

He must have fouled off 24 pitches in a row before he got that hit.

They threw a lot of strikes. They needed those innings.

I was telling our guys to get as few walks as possible because we wanted to swing the bats today.

Our guys hit the ball well, and our pitchers threw well.

He's thrown some in the bullpen, but he doesn't get in there a lot during games.
