Mark Foulkes Quotes (13 Quotes)

He's banged up. We're taking a much more conservative approach with him this season. He's two weeks into his therapy sessions. Hopefully, he'll be ready to throw two or three innings against East Aurora (Saturday).

Their pitcher did a great job. He kept the ball down, moved it in and out and generally kept us off-balance. And we didn't do a very good job attacking the ball today at all.

Kenny Laag was super on that mound, but Andy Reid was the man. He got ahead of a lot of hitters. He took charge out there. It was a big start for a senior, and he really stepped up and shined.

It's nice to put up runs early, but to not let them answer is huge.

That game could have been 2-1 going into the seventh. We did not do a good job handling the baseball. We did not field it well.

If that's an omen for the season, it's going to be long one.

That's a giant bright spot. Those three guys have thrown a number of varsity innings. It should help calm down the rest of the team, offensively and defensively.

The second time through they had a much better approach and were aggressive at the plate and drilled the ball. We just took too many strikes today. That's not the approach that we want or need to take.

We just got beat by a better team today. We couldn't overcome a lot of two-run spurts.

We kind of put everybody on a pitch limit today. I thought Andy did a fine job. He had good location and he had plenty of good pop. His curve wasn't quite there, but his mechanics were there. It's a bonus to get him back.

Offensively, we didn't attack. That's a far cry from the team we saw in the summer. That's probably the most frustrating and disappointing thing, we know we can play better and we're just not doing it.

Everything kind of clicked today, luckily. I can call all the plays I want to, but it takes them to execute.

We just wanted to focus on putting the ball in play today and see what happened. We got some fortunate bounces, but we put a couple runs on the board (early) and let our pitchers kind of settle in.
