We're getting some good work in. But we're losing games on the schedule that we can't get back.
(Rifle) was a hump we needed to get over. You could tell that especially the older kids were glad to get this done.
On paper, we're the best team in the league. We'll find out what that means if we get our field cleared off for Delta.
What you saw today was complete baseball. We do the little things right, and that has been the key this year.
We'll eventually have to use a relief pitcher more often. But right now, our starters are doing what they need.
Those numbers can be deceiving because of the pitching we faced wasn't as good. But the summer ball did give us a lot of innings.
We used these games to get some different looks.
We need to be on the grass more.
We hit the ball hard, and we hit it a lot. And we threw two kids for seven innings each.
We hit enough to win in the first game, but we left a lot of guys on base.
We should have everything figured out now and be ready to put the best team out there against Eagle Valley.
Everybody contributed up and down the lineup. I lit them up a little bit Wednesday about their performance against Steamboat Springs, and they came out focused.
It's not like they're swinging for the fences. We showed patience and then we swung the bat the right way when the ball is there.
If one guy gets down, and you keep him down, you lose one-ninth of your team. This year, we're going to have teamwork.
I realistically think we can win it all this year. But our mental approach has to be better.
I don't know how long it's been since we actually swept them. The kids came out ready, and we played some of our best baseball of the year.
Games against Battle Mountain will be good for us because it will be a challenge to stay sharp. We can always use more work on live situations.
