We set our expectations high. We are frustrated with the entire weekend, with some of the mistakes we made in the infield and with the pitching. We have to pick up our intensity. Instead of being careless we have to get after it.
I would always play the striker, so I would be running down the field back and forth almost the entire game, and man by the end, that was quite a workout.
I think you can say that we love to be in these tight positions to help this club get a sweep. It was good for us to have a close game and be able to execute.
It is great to have him on the mound. The guy was dealing. You know the guy is going to get it done.
I was trying to fire the crowd up, give us some momentum.
I still talk to some of the guys on my team. We don't hang out too often, but if I see them around campus, I'll say hey.
We have to come out and play with some swagger, some aggressiveness. It just seems like sometimes we get down. It seems like we lose it a little bit after a couple of mistakes.
We have to clean up pretty much everything. It was pretty pathetic. We didn't play the game soundly at all.
You can make excuses out there. There were some bad hops, but we have to make the plays.
You're always going to take wins. I've got that bad taste in my mouth from the entire weekend, just not playing the game soundly.
It's instilled in all of the guys in Lopez's program over the years. You always play hard and get after it. You have to play sound baseball and grow up real quickly. You can't use the excuse that you're a freshman.
