I thought it was a dolphin. It just nudged my side and I looked around (and saw) just a big white mass.

Lots of things were going through my mind. I just hoped, I just hoped that he'd come up.

Jarrod fought it off initially, then it came back again and grabbed his leg and just took him deeper.

I just thought it was a little nerves from the start; a lot of these guys have never raced in a stadium that big. Leonard stuck out his hand. Mardy held onto the stick tight, a little too tight. Leonard went to grab it and obviously had a good grip on it, and he was taking it out of Mardy's hand, and Mardy still wouldn't let go.

We thought it was only fair they be here. They're playing on our team, they should come to our dance.

Overall, I thought it was a really well played game. For our first game, there were a lot of positives. We were getting on a pretty good pitcher and we had chances to score runs.
