I was arguing the fact that the catcher had to go so high to get the ball and bring it down to tag our guy on the head. It was unfortunate the way things ended, but we shouldn't be caught in those situations. I probably should have pinch run for Mike in that situation, but I was thinking how tough it would have been had we gone extra innings without his bat in the lineup. It was a decision that didn't work out for us.

We're playing the way we're supposed to play and aren't doing anything crazy. Our pitchers are throwing strikes, our defense has only one error in the last four games and we're hitting the baseball, and I knew we had the talent to do it.

Anytime you can take two on the road, it helps. It's big for us, and we need to string them (wins) together.

They did a great job, and they have allowed only four runs in the last two weeks.
job great
Adam pitched well and gave us another quality start. It's nice to know we've got guys like him who are able to go deep into games. We did the little things again today, such as hitting the ball on two-strike counts, throwing strikes and playing defense.

I was glad we were able to get Tyler his first conference action. I know it wasn't under a lot of pressure, but he came in and did what he was supposed to do. We had Cory (Farrell) ready to go in the bullpen.

It's not a mystery, and there's no special formula to what we're doing. It's what every team strives to do, but our guys happen to be executing it well right now.

Lufkin is a tough place to play, much less sweep. I'm very proud of the effort we put out on the field today.

There was not a lot of fire in our team, and the results were indicative of that. I know we had a lot of guys out there who hadn't played in a while, so you can't expect immediate success. I'm not blaming them necessarily, but as a group, we didn't get at it today.

These were two pretty big wins, because we go on the road for six and needed to do so with some confidence. I thought the guys responded well today, and we did a good job on the mound. It was one of those days where the hitters have the upper hand due to the way the wind was blowing, but we're all excited about the prospects of where we stand now.
