Mike Metcalf Good Quotations

He did a nice job shutting them down. It was a good win.

We put good aluminum on the ball. But we were flat. It was completely opposite of how we were last week.

We're trying to continue to stay out of a rut, and playing aggressive baseball is the way to do that. When you play aggressive, good things are going to happen more times than not.

We got what we needed out of this. We played some good clubs and got prepared to make a run at the end.

These are the kind of games you have to win. Low-scoring games like this you have to have good pitching and play defense. We took a step forward tonight.

It was not a pretty game and North Port did a good job of taking the hand that was dealt to them and getting the job done.

All three pitchers we threw (Monday) did a good job. Pat kept us in the game and Tommy got us out of a jam and Robby did a nice job of finishing up. Our young guys needed to step up and they did a nice job of getting us through the game.

It's good for us. The thing about it is, we want to play competition like that to prepare us for down the road. We want to play a schedule like that so we can make a run when the playoffs start.
