“The pitchers did a great job in forcing contact and getting the ground balls. The infield had a lot of chances, some of them tough, and got it done without an error.”
Chris Hawkins
“We worked on everything. Infield, outfield, staying down on the ball, drop-steps. And everything with hitting, contact points as well as base running. We covered a little bit of everything. The kids got a good, round education this weekend in softball.”
Shelly Schultz
“We lost our whole infield, three pitchers and one outfield position. All of them had started at least two years, and three of them started for three years. But, life goes on. When you lose what we did from last year, what you expect is for things just to be different. Different isn't always bad.”
Dave Capozzi
“He just gave up a ton of ground balls tonight that were infield hits and ones that got through. He just threw so many pitches.”
Bobby Cox
“The infield here is rock hard. The ball comes off the ground extremely fast and David made an error and that happens, but he came back and got a big, clutch hit for us when his team needed it and got us back into the ballgame.”
Brian O'Connor
“Boy, the infield is like concrete out there. Ground balls get by you in a hurry. We can use the good weather to get our work in but you'd like to see a little rain at night to soften up the fields a bit.”
Ned Yost
“A good base stealer should make the whole infield jumpy. Whether you steal or not, you're changing the rhythm of the game. If the pitcher is concerned about you, he isn't concentrating enough on the batter.”
