46 Quotes by Mike Bianco

It was a solid performance, similar to the way we played the first three games.

Crawford got ahead of hitters and made clutch pitches. He didn't walk that many, and we weren't able to get the timely hit like we did in the first game.

That really came at the right time for us. We just haven't played real good baseball, and it's tough with a young club when you have adversity early.

Eighteen innings, to get eight hits. You're not going to win a lot of games.

That happens sometimes, and there's no real reason for it. This was more like us.

That isn't something that just coach Polk and me decide.

Not a lot of good has happened to us. And tonight, with their big grand slam, we showed a lot bouncing back.

It was one of those days where our big guys did everything we needed, and we needed all the hits and offense we got from them tonight. We needed every bit of offense we could find. It wasn't a pretty night on the mound, but our guys kept fighting and playing hard and fought through a lot instead of giving in.

It was just a bad night. It is tough to win when you give up a 10-run inning. The kids kept competing. We could not answer the big inning. They answered every time we tried to start a run.
