We made some hard defensive plays look really easy, including some great plays up the middle byand. However, to me more than anything we have to give the credit to our pitching staff. All three of them have done a phenomenal job of keeping us in every game."On"I tried a little different lineup today, just to give Amanda (Lorenz) a little bit of a break. I think she's been getting everyone's best shot, which she should, but today she performed really well. She had some important hits in some big spots for us.
