We had been walked off the last two days, so it was good that we stretched the game to extra innings and pulled it out. It was a good win for us, especially starting a new month and being back at home. Definitely the kind of game that can get you started in the right direction.
We just did not shut the door. It's disheartening to play so hard for seven innings and just hand it to them in the eighth and ninth. We may have gotten a little lax, thought the ball game was over.
We just did not shut the door. Every time you put them on base, you give them life, and then they?re a hit away. It?s just a shame. It?s disheartening to play so hard for seven innings and then just hand it to them in the eighth and ninth.
Two innings of baseball cost us this whole game. It?s mind-boggling to me trying to digest what just happened.
Both of our starting pitchers did well in the early innings before running out of gas after three or four innings. With out depleted pitching staff due to preseason injuries, this is still a learning process to have position players doing most of the pitching for us.
