Basically we started a tradition where we get as close to a hometown as we can. It was nice for Holly. ... I'm real proud of her, real happy.

Beth moved the ball around and kept hitters off their toes. She's pitched very well this season and kept up that pace in Florida. It was a great first day for us, and an exceptional day for Beth and Holly (Currie). We'll get some rest tonight and continue on tomorrow.

Beth threw well again tonight. It's continuing a trend for Beth this season. She's hitting her spots and limiting her walks, which is keeping opposing batters from focusing on a certain pitch. She's handling herself very well.

Beth had a great game from the circle. She was commanding, and the only real solid hit against her was the single in the eighth.

It's hard to beat (even) a crummy team with the scoreboard like it was.

Holly got much stronger as the game went on. Like Beth, she picked her corners, but also overpowered her batters at times.
