We haven't seen the win column in a while. I was disappointed with our mental approach for this game. We were a little lackadaisical today.

Autry had us fooled most of the game. He battled us and we didn't battle back.

We're still in the picture. Our backs are to the wall, but if we go out and take care of business, we've got a shot at the playoffs.

Both teams started off slow and then they put a bunch of hits together. We didn't battle back from that like we needed to.

Usually in games like this, mistakes will make the difference. We came out early and scored a couple of runs. We were able to put the ball in play and they made some mistakes.

That group will always have a special place in my heart. They set the tone for where we are right now.

I thought they did the right thing walking Tripp. I would have done the same thing in their position.

We're not playing each other over and over like we used to. It gives us some different teams to play and some good competition early in the season.

I admit I'm very emotional about it. I'm just ready. I'm tired and have gotten to the point that it's time to settle down.
