Rob Rowe Quotations

Port Charlotte did what they had to do to stay with us early. Their pitcher was doing just fine until the fifth.

Give credit to them (the Indians) for getting it done. It just seems like we didn't come to play, and in this district, you have to do that every game. We lacked a mental focus. We didn't come out and play baseball the way we are capable. We were tight.

From the middle of last season, Zach really has made strides dealing with adversity. He doesn't let things bother him. He just keeps playing.

We swung the bats well right off the jump.

I was a little concerned whether we could respond and start playing better baseball. It's not like we do that all the time. It's not one of our characteristics.

I think the top three seeds will be determined by whose pitching stays healthy.

Larry pitched good and got better as the game went along. If the game had gone on, he would have been even better.

We couldn't get ahead in the count. We weren't throwing strikes. You got to get ahead of a good hitting ball clubs.

We finally got the monkey off our back. We played looser and I think that helped. We made quite a few mental mistakes early, but our bats were hot and our pitching is coming around.

We got the win. We hit the ball well and executed the bunt, running and taking advantage of their mistakes.

We are kind of an explosive team with the bats. That's pretty much the way it's been with our bats all season.

We had the doctor check him out and he was OK. Edwin had a huge game.

We didn't help Jesse out early. But he came up big and helped us to settle in. Our pitching is coming around.

It's unfamiliar territory, is what I'm saying. I hope we come out and play better tomorrow.

It's not good. I wish it wasn't like this. If we don't get going at 4 o'clock or have a long inning ... it's not a factor that nice to have to worry about.

Anybody can beat anyone else. We're still learning about these teams. All I know is you have to play your best all the time.

I just want to keep playing well the rest of this district. We've got three district games left -- that's what I'm focusing on.

I'm completely unsatisfied with the way we represented North Port High School. That's it.
