Question : A couple questions for you, you know, watching your pitching staff it's been so impressive how fun is it to see, Rocker, Leiter, and Little, see all those guys, you know, make big pitches and especially you know last night you guys had the huge explosion offense. Last night, how does that help you guys going into SEC play against LSU coming up?

Answer : Well, we're just to answer your first question, yeah it's enjoyable to help to watch pitchers help us win more than anything and I think when you get a competitive kids that charge the ball towards the strike zone, it, it creates an energy defensively that is so important, I mean I've always felt like and I don't think I'm any different than anyone else, pitchers set the tone for the game. And if there's some sloppiness out there at the beginning, it tends to overflow into your team now you can overcome that, but I think when you're pitching is crisp and it's attack, it's attacking. It keeps the game moving and certainly we are a team that really focuses on pace of play and moves likes to move, move from defense to offense as quickly as possible so that certainly helps but it is a lot of fun to watch those guys compete.
