“It was the character and the attitude of the players that made the difference. They didn't give in to fatigue or lack of production. It was a pleasure to go to the park every day because these kids wanted to play.”
“Garrett was both a pitcher and catcher during his career. We don't have a catching coach full time, so that will help our team. He has played at the Triple-A level. It is important to have that experience, to help our players prepare for the next level, to be more well-rounded.”
