Phoenix is tough. Their record doesn't show that, but that doesn't mean a thing in our league. They're solid; they play good defense, pitch it pretty well, and we're going to have to go out and play well - just like every other series we play.
I thought we did well against a good pitching performance by them. We just made some mistakes, and when you make mistakes in a close game, it ends up hurting you.
We needed to get out and win some games. We picked up two of them, so it was a good and positive experience.
Towers consistently takes good at bats. That's the reason we've put him in there more often and moved Justin (Ross) to play left field. That allows us to put both of them in the lineup.
We went out there and played good baseball, and we did some of the things we were supposed to do. Either team could've won that game. Unfortunately, it just didn't work out for us.
