“I think the games we won on the road set a good tone for this club. They started to hit well during the end of the road trip and they carried that on tonight.”
“His pitch count went a little high because of the first couple of innings. We were hoping he could get the win, but we don't want to burn him out because that could carry over the next start.”
“We came out swinging today and it paid off. We have a few guys in the middle of the lineup who can take the ball deep; that pitch that Turner hit got up in the jet stream and just took off.”
“Jay is a guy who is always going to put the ball in play. He's a decent hitter, a good hitter. Fortunately, with the bases loaded, he was able to hit a home run for us.”
“I think the game was lost in the (third) when we gave up five runs, then two more in the fourth. I think, if we had shut them down or held them to one or two runs, they probably wouldn't have been as aggressive as they were. But they can swing the bats.”
