COACH’S COMMENTS
“… Great road win for our guys. We’ve been on the brink plenty this year. Tonight’s was a great program win.”
“… Our guys just have to learn to play with a certain level of intensity and focus.
We still were far from clean but had the most fight we’ve had all year. For us to succeed and accomplish what we want to do – that is a must and I’m not going to accept anything less.”
“… Braxton Davis had an outstanding outing and he’s really solidifying himself at the top of our rotation.”
“… Eli Fletcher had another nice night at the plate which is becoming the norm for him.”
“… Nothing to show up for in stat line- but Blake Prater played like we have to have him play behind the dish tonight.”
“… Great at bat in the 5th by Abner Collinsworth coming up with a huge two out 2 strike RBI double.”
