32 Quotes by Brian Gruber

Overall we did a pretty decent job today. We played well defensively. Our two errors were throwing errors on relay plays. They were nothing really major. Our pitchers did a nice job. We don't have a pitching staff that will get a lot of strikeouts. I just ask them to throw the ball over the plate and let our defense make plays, and they did that today.

Our pitchers did a great job today, I have to tip my hat to those guys.

That says a lot about our ball club. The guys keep battling with two out and the other team may think the inning is over and let up a little bit and we kept getting the big hits.

We're definitely looking forward to our trip. The guys are excited. It's a nice thing for us to have a chance to play some other (NCAA) Division III schools on this trip. Granted, these teams will all have their 15 to 20 games in while we're just starting out, but we'll be playing teams that we match up with a little bit better compared to the NAIA teams. We're looking forward to a fun trip.

We are playing good baseball right now, we are not committing turnovers like we were earlier in the year.

We kind of gave it away in the sixth inning. Errors are bad enough, but when you have three in one inning, that really sets you back.

We were pretty aggressive in stolen bases. We were making things happen, and when you are up in the game it is easier to be aggressive.

We have to do something to make things happen. With the wind blowing in, it was a tough day. We had the right situation up.

You get out there and you play hard, but a victory lets you know in the back of your mind that all your hard work is paying off. It's early in the year, but it is nice to get a win to build the confidence.
