We're not going to overpower anybody on the mound, but we've got some guys that can throw strikes. That's what we need.
We tried to bust him on the inner half of the plate and we missed. It was a gamble that we took ? we didn't want to let their best hitter beat us ? and then their next kid stepped up and got a big hit.
He was battling. He was throwing strikes and he had a lot of pop on his fastball. He was locating it really well.
We just jumped on them right from the start. We put the pressure on them, which was good.
It was a well-played game. Our kids came out and competed, which was good to see after a long break.
