Champ Atlee Quotations

I was concerned after those first three games because of the kind of mistakes we were making in one-run losses to tough teams. Either we were trying to do too much, or we were falling asleep. So today I called them in and challenged them (in the middle of the game). I said, ?Apparently we?re headed back in the same direction.? You saw the response.

Last season, we basically put a lot of pressure on ourselves. One year later, it?s nice to be back in this position, playing well against the best teams in the county.

It was messy, but he finished the game. There were moments when he was throwing the ball very well and there were times when he lost touch with the strike zone. I was impressed with how he came back.
