00:00I mean, the whole team was locked in.
00:02Nothing went as planned.
00:04I think today was the only game that we got through
00:05playing the whole nine innings without a delay.
00:09Team did a great job staying locked in the whole time,
00:11and everybody performed the way that they needed to.
00:16Chase, what was the difference between Jake Marciano
00:18going back to Friday and then what he was able to do tonight?
00:22He had the same mindset going in both times.
00:25They jumped him the first time.
00:26The second time, he got a little more comfortable in there
00:29and executed some more pitches
00:30and just had a better overall outing.
00:33Chase, 2-2 in the sixth.
00:35When you hit the tie-breaking home run,
00:37could you talk about what you got
00:39and what you were looking for
00:40and what that moment was like?
00:42I was just looking for a fastball out over the plate.
00:44He's been throwing a lot of them to left-handed hitters,
00:46and I got one that I could handle
00:48and put a good swing on it.
00:49Jackson, what can you say about Chase?
00:51Six home runs, 15 RBIs, school records in the regional,
00:55just the job he did offensively.
00:57Yeah, I mean, everybody's going to talk about
00:59the offense, but defensively,
01:00I think he was just as big.
01:02He's getting under pitches, calling pitches
01:05where we don't even have to shake.
01:06We're coming up there free of mind.
01:08He's going over with hitters
01:09after he gets in the bat in the dugout with Chiefs,
01:11so when we get out there on the mound,
01:12we're not fumbling around like,
01:14who's this guy?
01:15What's his tendencies?
01:17Yeah, I think the defensive part's the biggest telltale.
01:20I mean, that's a bigger MVP than, I think, the hitting.
01:24Last one for the student-athletes.
01:25Yeah.
01:26Chase, they had a stat that you're the first guy
01:29in a decade to have two five-game home run streaks.
01:34How crazy is that to think about?
01:36That's pretty crazy.
01:37I mean, when I'm trying not to hit homers
01:39and trying to stay with my approach is when it happens,
01:41so I'm going to keep with the same approach
01:43and keep going,
01:44and hopefully it rolls into next week.
01:45All right.
01:45All right.
