E. Hicks Hit Quotations

We need to make contact with the ball. We don't need the long balls. We just need to hit the ball.

I think she's going to hit a lot more in the next three years. But that one was special.

Sometimes you get frustrated when a team goes on a run. But we have to be able to handle that. If she hits a big shot we need to hit one of our own.

We have to play really good defense. We need to score, and we can't get blanked out. We need to hit the ball. Right now at this point, more than anything else, we have to hit the ball.

We got some hits on him and hands in his face. When you do that to any quarterback, he's going to become very average.

I think we hit the ball real hard today again. The hardest-hit ball turned into a double play. If that ball gets by, we score runs. Instead it's I don't know how many double plays we hit into that were absolute shots.

We can't wait until the bottom half of the seventh inning of the second game to realize what we have to do to hit the ball.

I reformed the Hot Licks, and in essence it was just adding girl singers for the first time in decades and hitting the road, playing out a lot with this six-piece band. The advice through the years had been to have girl singers with me again, so I did that.

I guess that hit on the head helped me.

I don't think we could hit the ball any harder than we did today. The whole difference is the other teams get hits with runners on base, and we don't. We don't get the key hits at the key times.
