I can't say enough about our guys and the way they came out to play. We're hitting the ball real well and that's something we need to keep doing because we'll have several more games like this left.
Our guys are just playing great baseball right now. Things can always change in the blink of an eye, but I think this bunch will stay focused and take this season one game at a time.
Our young guys got to play a lot this week and that will help us down the road. It is a long season and you never know when one of those guys will be counted on to come in and make plays.
We are good for about three or four errors without him. When he was out, we had to make some shifts in our lineup and play a couple of guys out of position. He is a calming influence while out there on the field.
This break comes at a good time for us. It would have been wonderful to go into it on a winning note. We need this time to get our guys rested and ready to go for the stretch run.
I told the guys it wasn't perfect, but it was as perfect a game as we've had in a long time.
I am very proud of my guys for winning the Boll Weevil Classic for the second straight year. It was a long week in which we played six games, but they stayed focused. We hit the ball really well this week and once again our pitching was outstanding.
