11 Quotes by Pete Porath

Scotty (Finch) threw a good game. He started using his split-finger more and threw it pretty well. He was hitting is spots for the most part.

We played very well, but we didn't capitalize on some big opportunities we had.

We had guys on base all day. We had the bases loaded and no outs in the fourth and only came out with one run. That hurt.

With the exception of some erratic pitching, we played pretty solid. Overall, we hit the ball better and we're scoring some runs, just not enough. We're making some mistakes that cost us at inopportune times.

We had one hit through the first three innings, but we had several guys on with walks -- we had runners on every inning. We hit better that last few innings.

We gave up six runs in one inning (fourth) and that really hurt. We hit three batters, had two walks, a passed ball and they got two hits. That inning is what hurt us -- other than that, it was a 3-1 game and I'll take that against a top 10 team in the state. We should be feeling better about how we can compete.

We did some good things. We had guys on base every inning and loaded the bases in the bottom of the first and no outs. (But) our hitter goes after a bad pitch and hits into a double play. Then the next guy grounds out. To me, that's a mental mistake because you don't go after pitches like that, especially with no strikes.

We did some good things. We had guys on base every inning.

We had some control issues. Scotty hit three guys and struggled a little. He pitched pretty well except for that one inning. We also had an error, which didn't help. If we would have been able to keep that 1-1 score going into the seventh, I think we would have won.
