We hit a bad stretch there of about three games where we struggled. Now we're getting back to where we should be. We've won three in a row and we've played about five decent games straight. Things are starting to take shape.
More Quotes from Jeff Zickafoose:
We scored four in the sixth and four in the seventh and one in the eighth. Both times we came back from deficits. We scored four in the sixth and left the tying run on base. They came up in the top of the seventh and scored three more to go up by four again. We were fortunate enough to score four ourselves to come back and tie it.Jeff Zickafoose
It wasn't a blowout, but it was their game right from the start. We have just got to start swinging the bat better than we did tonight. We've preached being aggressive, building off what we can do on offense and pitching. But at the same time, if you don't hit you aren't going to do much.

We've got guys that started the year struggling terribly at the plate. Now, they're starting to show some signs that they're coming out of that. The second game, execution-wise, yeah we probably could have really busted it open, but we're trying to get better.

For us last year, we had the problem of giving up the big inning a lot of the time. We got better as things went on, and this year we're a totally different team, and we have to put that stuff behind us. We've got several freshmen and sophomores we're going to live or die with. That's our future.

It felt good for these young guys to do that. They're excited. We had a rough week last week.

He's another kid who's coming out this year who has a lot of ability but not a lot of experience. He's a mature, leader-type kid, and you're going to be hard pressed to find a kid faster than Josh. He's in center field and he'll pitch some too. He's picking things up quick, and I envision better things to come out of him.

In the end, nature is inexorable: it has no reason to hurry and, sooner or later, it takes what belongs to it. Unconsciously and inflexibly obedient to its own laws, it doesn't know art, just as it doesn't know freedom, just as it doesn't know goodness.Ivan Turgenev

The Beethoven Experience provided the opportunity to solidify the relationship between the Orchestra and me, the Orchestra and me and the public, between all of us and the city of New York, because Beethoven after all is a really amazing point of reference.
