Yeah, they executed their game plan.

Like I've been saying, they totally just zeroed out our offense at that time.

and we were chasing at an unbelievable rate.

And they used that to their advantage and they didn't throw us any strikes and they won those games and they did what they had to do to get to the World Series.

I mean, that's why I'm saying what I'm saying about the,

the executing of your game plan.

All these analytical numbers and all this stuff that they put in front of you nowadays, those numbers are what they are for a reason.

If you can execute your game plan and use those numbers to your advantage, you're gonna have success.

And I think that's exactly what they did.

Yeah, I mean, I think the best thing that you can do is be good at turning the page and kind of focusing on the next task.

Louie's got a great arm and great stuff and all that has stayed consistent through the time that he's been here.

I think if anything, I would say that let's just really focus on making sure that we're taking care of our pitches in certain counts and to certain guys.

If you're throwing breaking balls to good breaking ball hitters, we're taking care of those locations.

And the same thing with the fastball, you're not grooving fastballs to a good fastball hitter and just kind of giving him that.

Like I said, these guys are here for a reason.

They've played their way to this point, just like we have.

And we know exactly what they are as an offense, and we need to go out and use that against them.

Yeah, I think it's paying a little bit more attention

attention to the details of it.

Making sure we're mixing our looks, mixing our times, that kind of thing.
