Josh struggled a little bit early, but then he started throwing his breaking pitch pretty good. Our defense played well behind him, and we swung the bats effectively. We didn't commit any errors, so that's a good thing.

This was the first complete game we've played this season. Josh got ahead on a lot of his pitches and threw a great game.

(Mora) didn't throw the breaking ball early (for a strike). Once he settled down and started throwing the curve on the first pitch, they couldn't get up there and hack at the first-pitch fastball. That changed the game.

I've always started off bad. I struggled really bad early last year, and then toward the end I had eight home runs in a month. I asked myself why can't I do that every time I play, and that's what I've tried to do, find that kind of consistency.

It was a good week. We played pretty well. We're still a bit inconsistent and we still have too many turnovers, but the kids are playing hard.

We had chances. He struggled with his command and that got the pitch count up pretty fast but you've got to get that hit that brings in some runs. We just couldn't get it.
