Quotes and Notes Losing Coach, Gary Bender, Rock Island, "Schaumburg has an excellent ballclub. We had trouble getting people out today. We tried to get into situations to get a double play, but it just didn't work out. Tweeners just kept getting through. " Winning Coach, Paul Groot, Schaumburg, "This was a simple game. We got great pitching and we hit the ball hard. When you get a chance to end it early, you have to do that. I won't apologize for running and bunting in the 3rd inning of a ballgame. Our '89 team (runner-up) had tremendous speed. This team has power and our pitching depth is better. " |
