It's not a stretch we're happy with. But we've been in one of those stretches where it seems a lot of bad things happen, when they all come back to bite you in the butt — hard.

I've seen (Strother) go through stretches where nothing's gone in, but she had that one stretch where she made everything. It all evens itself out, I think. I think all she needs is a couple to drop. ... She'll come around.

It seems we're not only letting other teams jump out, then [they] add on, which makes it tough. But we're not clicking ourselves in the first four or five innings. We've got to find a way to correct that.

I probably would not use him for more than one inning. And if I got him warming up in the bullpen, I'd want to get him in the game.

Had we scored one of those runs, yeah, I think we would have [gotten the momentum]. Not doing that, I think we lost the momentum.

I think it was just two good teams that both had our stretches. We just had a better stretch.
