I knew when he released the ball it was good. We never quit.

That's why he was in there. When the ball went up, I knew it would fall incomplete or he would pick it off.

He's thrown strikes when he's pitched. He's shown a good breaking ball, which we knew he had.

We have a sign that points from Long Beach to Jackson. Guess what? We're going.

We got whipped inside. Aldridge and Williams, they knew when the ball went up, they could go get it. They had a field day.

He's left-handed, has a great arm and is very strong. The ball seemed to explode when he released it and that's when we first saw him two years ago in Savannah. We decided to follow his progress and he's turned out to be a perfect fit for our program.
