Ray Tanner Played Quotations

My team has really played about as well as it can play the last two weeks. First part of the year, we weren't quite as good ... we've gotten better with a young team.

My guys played hard but weren't good enough. We got out-hit and out-pitched.

I feel like we have a pretty good bench, and a lot of times you can't get guys in, but we were able to give some guys chances. I thought we played well in all areas. We made plays defensively and only walked one.

We caught Alabama at a time when they were playing their best baseball. Today it was simple, pitching and hitting. They did both better than we did. My guys played hard but they weren't good enough.

We played about as well as we could.

Cruse gave us the performance of his career. I'd like to get a few more hits, but we played about as good as we can and pitched about as good as we can pitch against a team of that caliber.

I just hate doubleheaders in general. But it had nothing to do with what happened today. We played a team today that's very, very good and we caught them at a time when they're playing their best baseball.
