Keys To Success

  • They relied quite heavily on their top two pitchers, who both threw double the innings of anybody else, the rest of the staff needs to help them out
  • Ten of the 34 runs they gave up were unearned, shoddy defense will not cut it this week
  • They don't look to run often, but they need to pick their spots better as they stole less than half the bases attempted
  • Need to cut down on the 9 strikeouts a game against better pitching, though they're a solid hitting team that could easily be in the final day
