Jay Johnson's Take: Tigers Looking to Carry Momentum

“I thought we played a really complete game on Sunday (vs. Tennessee) against some really good arms. It was a good performance all the way around. We played in our best character – loose, free, confident, aggressive, with a good plan.

"Our players did what they needed to do against the pitchers we were facing, and they positively impacted the game.”
