He said it

“We were down in the fifth and the next inning one guy got on and then Vosler, my roommate, hit a home run on that changeup and it really changed the game for us. Their pitcher was good but made that one mistake pitch to Vosler and we took advantage.” – Pelicans infielder Chesny Young

“Tseng pitched and had his stuff tonight. Lots of spotting the fastball and good curveballs to strike guys out. So just having guys that go out there and throw strikes makes defense a lot easier. He held them to three runs and gave us a chance.” – Young
