I felt decent all week, but my rhythm was a tick off today. I was unlucky to get it in the playoffs, but I tried to bear down. I feel better about this game than when I have my good stuff. It's easy when you have your good stuff but to battle back when you're off feels great. It was a huge help to have a crowd behind you like that.
People talk about East Coast and Southern schools and how great their support is.
To get a regional here and have a crowd like that, I'm definitely grateful that they came out. It does help. You want to win for your fans. The crowd played a big part, especially in that at bat. The crowd gets in the pitcher's head.
