“Tonight, it looked like a fastball, ... and as soon as you swung, the bottom dropped out of it.”
Brandon Inge
“Tonight it was one rough inning. Besides that, we looked good and we swung the bats well. I don't think (dropping series openers) is a trend. I hope it's not.”
Bobby Crosby
“He looked a lot better. I watched him (on TV), and he was taking some pitches he swung at last year.”
Steve Liddle
“I felt like we swung at a lot of balls and took a lot of strikes. Tonight, he struck out three in the first but after that we made that adjustment, where we swung at the strikes and took the balls, and obviously it made a big difference.”
Chris Bates
“He had the best slider I've seen him have in four years. It looked like a fastball before you swung, then it just dropped.”
“I'm proud of the way we swung the bats. Their pitchers struggled throwing strikes tonight. … I don't think the score is indicative of the type of team they have.”
Barry Shelton
“He's better, but looks thinner. But he swung (the bat) well.”
