We'd been very fortunate not to leave runners on so far this year. But we let some opportunities pass (Monday). If we'd been able to scratch a run or two early, maybe it might have changed the game.
ball doubt early game guy guys hit nice scoring strange

build coming four game guys might opportunity season win
All four of those guys coming back is probably the linchpin that we'll build the season around. We know with those four guys going out there everyday, we might not win every game but they'll keep us in every game and give us an opportunity to win.

He's fantastic. He moved the ball around very well and was very intelligent. The guys he struck out two, three times (Friday), are not guys that strikeout two and three times against anybody. - I was very, very impressed by (Brown).
