“Travis was good,” Brown said. “A lot of teams were good. Obviously, Ridge Point was the standard. George Ranch was right there. Austin played really well this year. I knew coming back with the experience we had, I thought we’d have a chance. Our pitching exceeded my expectations. We had around a 2.40 ERA as a team. If you pitch like that you give yourselves a chance.”
