We're going to play a lot of very good baseball teams in league play. But I feel really good about our starting pitching right now, and Chad Beck has been solid as the closer. We're not where we need to be hitting the ball right now, but that will come. I think we'll be a good hitting team before it's over.

We've got to do better than that one inning. We've got to get an out when they give us one with the bunt. But we righted the ship, (Danny) Farquhar came in and got a couple of big outs and Chad (Beck) did what he's supposed to do in the ninth.

Some of our other pitchers are going to have to step up and help us this week. We're going to have to look at some younger guys.

They're rebuilding, and I know how that feels. It's not an easy situation that he (NSU coach Chip Durham) is in, and we're hoping and pulling for him. Tonight, Buddy just didn't give them any life.

We were able to get some big outs. Brandt got a big out for us, and Farquhar inherited a tough situation because you never know when your big inning will be.

158

He's been a tough kid all his life. He's got linebacker mentality. He threw a great game and dominated a good team on the road.

155

He's done everything that we ever ask of a pitcher. We don't ask them to win the game, but we do ask them to put us in a position to win, and he's done that every time.

One good thing about it is we're going back with experience on the mound and in the bullpen with Brandt Sanders. And our other guys will get to open at home.

121

We're happy with where we are, especially where we're coming from. The only negative is we're throwing only about five deep, and someone else among the pitchers has to step up.
