Matt really stepped it up. He didn't have his best stuff but went out and pitched a complete game. Our hitting was a little better in the second game. Zach got a big hit with two outs. We still have work to do with hitting and defense.
Ryan hit another ball right to the wall. He looked much more comfortable at the plate today.
It was just nice to be outside again after the two-week hiatus being back indoors.
Overall we did a pretty decent job today. We played well defensively. Our two errors were throwing errors on relay plays. They were nothing really major. Our pitchers did a nice job. We don't have a pitching staff that will get a lot of strikeouts. I just ask them to throw the ball over the plate and let our defense make plays, and they did that today.
We kind of gave it away in the sixth inning. Errors are bad enough, but when you have three in one inning, that really sets you back.
Zach threw strikes and let his defense work behind him.
We ran into some pitching troubles. This is our sixth game here and we're a little rough around the edges.
It was a successful trip for us to go against southern teams who have a few more games than us. We picked up experience by going out and playing the game. It was fabulous. It was a nice way to end the spring trip with a win. The guys were a little tired and a little road weary. They stepped up that second game and picked up a competitive win.
This is by far the best team we've played down here. We battled with them but their pitching was a little too much for us this early in the season. They had their numbers one and two starters pitching and they dominated us.
