We were just leaving balls right in the middle of the plate, up, and you just can't do that with good hitters.
They're way better than their record. They'll be as good as anybody offensively in the league.
You don't have to go more than two hours and you can see a lot of good baseball in the Philadelphia area. I think it's a tremendous advantage to go within two hours and put a net around it.
You want to finish the trip off on a good note, especially since we had such a rough start. Hopefully now they are starting to believe in some of the things we are trying to get across to them in practice.
We want to get the game to Doug Brown. He's been our most consistent pitcher, and we think we have a weapon at the end of the game. So if we can keep the game close and get it to him, then we feel pretty good about it.
It was good last year, and it should be as good or even better this year. I don't think we have any cold to drive them out. There should be birds around.
