We're going to need to show more intensity than we have in the past. Co-Lin is a better team than Jones and the split with Pearl River shows that.

We have a better chance this year than in years past.

It may sound simple, but we need to catch and throw. We also have to pick up some hits with runners in scoring position.

What we to tell him is basically he has no control over who comes or what goes on outside these white lines and outside that fence. He has no control over that. The main things we tell him to do are stay focused on the task at hand and each pitch. Everything else will take care of itself.

He got out there and did what we asked him to do. We had a good plan going in. He had a great first four innings, and then the fifth, sixth and seventh it looked like they got after him a little bit. He fought through it and made big pitches when he needed to.

It was the same thing against Co-Lin as it was with Jones. We can't play consistent enough to win two in a row. We didn't play well. We'll need to against Pearl River.
