We've relied on Patrick ordsprog

We've relied on Patrick a lot this year, but I feel confident in Charlie, Alex and the others. We've got the arms there. If we can get them to throw strikes — that's my main concern. Charlie is our most consistent throwing strikes after Patrick. That's what I'm going to be looking for in the first game of the tournament.

Charlie did a good job throwing strikes tonight. If our pitchers throw strikes and we make the routine plays on defense, we'll have a chance in region play.

That's why I believe in him, honestly. Last year we struggled as a line, so Patrick struggled. If we do well, then he's going to do well. So we're not going to put all that pressure on Patrick. If we lose then it's our loss, not just Patrick's.

That was two back-to-back triples leading off that inning. Patrick hit the ball hard all four at-bats. The two triples he hit were hard-hit balls. I hope he stays hot this weekend. I hope Charlie continues to hit well. He had a tough night tonight with one hit, but I'm not worrying about Charlie.

We did a good job of not chasing anything when he wasn't throwing strikes. You saw him out there throwing strikes and pounding the zone. He's as good as there is at that age.

He's another guy that's cool, consistent and not afraid. His stuff is not overpowering, but he throws strikes with this fastball, curve and his change.
