He's going to give you everything he's got, and he's going to give us a chance to put us in the ball game. I feel confident. The team had a good workout today.

We'll take it. We came out and swung the bats early. I told them they play hard at home. They've lost four ball games by one run in district. They made a comeback. I was really proud of our kids for hanging in there at the end. It looked pretty bad. We came back and made some big pitches and got through it. We sure needed the win. We have games the next two days. It was big for us.

We went 10 innings with them the first time, and I expect it to be a good ball game on Tuesday. They have two good right handers that I expect to face, so we'll try to see what we can do with them, but it's going to be competitive all the way through. You just have to come out ready to play every night.

It was a total team effort. We played 16-17 guys per game. It's really good to see contributions up and down our lineup. When they get to the ball park, they are ready to play because they know they are going to play at some point and time.

It was a big win. North Shore had beaten a good Cy-Fair ball club. I told our kids they were going to be in a seven-inning fight. I was real proud of the way we played. We made plays when we had to. Jeremy showed a lot of composure and we made some big plays behind him.

In the seventh we didn't keep the ball in front of us. You get excited in the heat of the game. It didn't lose the ball game for us, but you have to tip your hat to them. They played hard, and that's just the way it is in this district.
