14 Quotes by Terry Piazza

Ryan pitched well, he's pitched well all year. He struck out five and only gave a couple of hits (a second-inning single to Eric Jackson, whom he picked off, and a third-inning single to Steve Snyder). He doesn't walk guys. He's not overpowering but he throws all his pitches for strikes. If you don't put people on base, you win.

Runs have been surprisingly hard to come by during the early season. I guess we've been coming around slowly, but we really broke out today. I hope we can keep it up at Andrew today in the SouthWest Suburban.

People don't realize it because he's small, but Cory has really been driving the ball. People may underestimate his ability. He's a strong kid.

There was unbelievable pitching by all four guys. I like to be involved in these types of games. I can't say enough about the baseball and the pitching. At some point somebody has to break in a game like this and unfortunately it was us tonight.

It's unfortunate that Ryan pitched like he did and came out on the losing end. Our team just made more mistakes today, a lot of mental mistakes, in both games. I still think we're a good team, but we have a lot of work to do.
