We seem to be headed in the right direction. That was a good ball club we beat. Timely hitting has been a problem, but today we got the hits when we needed them.

Timely hitting continues to be an issue. We had a great time, the weather was great and we got everybody into the game.

To beat these guys you have to play almost a flawless game. Give them credit, they made a few more plays than we did tonight. We're not happy with the result. We're going to fight hard to win all our other conference games so when they come to our place it means something.

Eddie Haas talked a lot about not hitting the ball in the air.

There's some good hitting out there. I wouldn't run (with) that stinking ball.
