""Pitching was outstanding. Our starters did a great job keeping us in all three of these games, and then our bullpen came up huge. Offensively, one through nine, even the guys on the bench coming up big in big situations. They just kept hammering away all game long.""
""We kept rising to the occasion and kept ringing the bell and going back at them. Couldn't be just more proud of our group, all the way around.""
