I was busting my tail down the line because I knew it was going to be a bang-bang play at first,

It was so bang-bang, I had no idea what happened or what caused the ball to be loose, ... All I knew was I looked down, saw the ball going through my arms and off my body and we'd won.

This was a very big game for us. We don't want to scoreboard watch too much, but we knew the Giants had won (in Washington). Jake is our staff ace, and he is our stopper. When he takes the mound, we expect to win baseball games.

I was just running as hard as I could, wanting to make them make a play, and the next thing you know, the ball was in my chest and my arms. I just wanted to make a good bunt and put some pressure on them. It was bang-bang, and fortunately it got by him.

I learned [Thursday] what I always knew about our team. They can come out and play well against any team in the state. When they put their minds to it, they get out there and move the ball around and score.

Something needs to spark us, and I think that we'll do something tomorrow night. Whether it be a great play or a big hit, a two-out hit, something like that. We haven't had any of the above. We need to get something like that to kind of get the momentum.
