You could see our kids were out of steam. In both of our Saturday games, we were trying to hit the ball really hard and trying to take really big swings. They were tired.

It's kind of a shocker. (Drugs) are something we talk about at the beginning of the season, including how a career could end and how bad they are for your bodies. We try to steer them in the right direction.

We didn't really get what we expected out of either starting pitcher. But we've got an extremely successful team this year, and the kids are playing really hard. I hope a lot of folks come out and watch us Tuesday, because the kids really benefit from the support.

We haven't beaten these guys in a while, certainly not here. I'm told they've won 20-something straight games.

We put the ball in play quite a bit at Grants. We only struck out eight times the whole day.

We'll take the positive from this.
