Fast Facts
Ike Cousins Head Baseball Coach Wes Johnson
On Joey's performance today after the start of the game was delayed two hours and 19 minutes due to rain/lightning...
"We keep going through some adversity stuff with him, which is good. We need to. He warmed up, played catch and we thought we were fine. That cell popped up, and the lightning got us and pushed us back. We thought we were going to go again at 4 p.m., and another one popped up. The mental; gymnastics you have to go through on that then come out and give us six innings. It's really big."
#37 Joey Volchko | RHP | Jr.
On working through the game on the mound…
"I went back to being really aggressive in the zone early. I was trying to pick corners in the second and third with the sweeper and curveball. I think as I established the heater and worked off that, it got a lot better."
