The strike zone suddenly shrunk. We battled through it and came back to trail 6-4 but could get no closer.

We compounded too many errors together. On the flip side, R.A. Long fought pitches off, found the holes and banged some big hits.

We kicked the ball around too much. R.A. Long has been hot all season. You give a team like that those opportunities, they will do their best to take advantage of them.

We kicked the ball around early in the top of the fourth and gave 'em a big inning.

Jacob Green came in and absolutely shut them down. He did a really nice job, gave them absolutely zero opportunities in the last three innings of that game.

Jake had good command of his stuff. He did a nice job.

They (Heritage) executed behind two or three good hit-and-runs and they found the holes when they needed to. We made a few mistakes physically and mentally, which compounded into long innings for us.

Steven did a great job working out of jams by keeping the ball down. I can't say enough about his effort.

I know our kids are hurting after this one. We have to rebound. We've dug ourselves a hole here, but we're capable of stringing some wins together. We have some good ball players. We're capable of doing it.
