We knew if we could take care of business against Missouri State and Bradley -- and by taking care of business, I mean winning all of them -- we'd be in it. Anything short of that, we couldn't do it. We'd be at least two games out with a lot of teams in front of us.
I really think Aaron Shafer pitched well and gave us a chance to win the game. I'm very impressed with his demeanor and the way he goes about his business. I think he's an outstanding prospect, and he's going to be a great pitcher for us.
