I thought they performed well. Um, a Gil
kid is pretty legit, you know, you have
a pretty good fastball. He moved around, he
can get his change up over, get his breaking
balls over. Um, he's real and we,
we hung in the game and we did give ourselves
early in the game. We had an opportunity but
it was two outs, but then we had the
winning run on the, on the bag and we
had the tying run on the bag. We,
we, we just didn't come through when you get
in trouble like that and you could minimize the damage
. It happens and we did minimize the damage.
You know, it could have been worse and when
it turned out, it, it turned out to
be a 2 to 1 ball game. Um,
no, I'm, I'm very proud of the way
they performed out there. That was the middle of
my order right there. So, um, I
wasn't gonna make them bunt because they don't bunt.
So I was taking my shot with them, swinging
the bat and, um, we barreled the ball
just was at them just like the balls went at
him. It could have got holes, but we
barreled the balls. But uh if I was at
another part of the lineup down at the bottom,
you think about that? But in that part of
the lineup, those are the guys that's supposed to
drive in the runs, you let him swing the
back. It was uh called uh what infield fly
. And the player got to give him a chance
to catch the ball and he wasn't on the bag
if he was on the bag and he bumped him
on the bag. That's different. Uh The one
I was really complaining about was uh a Rizzo.
He was cool the way he ran through there and
let that ball hit him. Ha to me.
