 Hi Bears fans, I'm Alexia Inman with CalTV Sports here at Evans Diamond with Cal Baseball pitcher Jared Horne. Jared, thanks so much for being with me today. Of course. So you guys have a really good start to your season so far. You've had a lot of clutch series wins, especially last weekend against Utah. In your starts in those series you've had a really low number of home runs and extra bases hit against you. So what do you credit to your success in those categories? You know, all credit goes to my defense. They're making stellar plays and picking up balls when they need to. And I'm also working with Coach Mike Neu, just going over the game plan, how to attack hitters, and it seems to be working out so far. So you personally started off the year really hot. Your first four games that you started in your team won and you were credited for three of those. Now the last four games have had more challenges for you, but how do you plan to emulate that fast start you had the rest of the season? You know, just showing up every day and going to work, keeping in close contact with Mike, saying what I can do better. Every start and just taking one pitch at a time and skimming is my best. So over the summer your program added a new head coach, Mike Neu. Not only was he the pitching coach from 2012 to 2015 here at Cal and also a huge factor in your class's recruitment, but he also grew up in Napa and went to the same high school as you. Is having similar backgrounds as him helped you to relate more as a coach player kind of relationship? Absolutely. The Napa baseball community is pretty small, so we're able to not only like build our player-coach relationship, but just a personal relationship through mutual friends and stories about our past. So how are you guys going to keep the winning momentum you have from the last Utah series going into your series against Washington State this coming weekend? You know, we're just going to keep the spirits high, keep working hard and taking it one game at a time. Not looking too much in the future. Just trying to finish the second half of the season strong. So considering it's primetime baseball season right now, both in the collegiate and the professional worlds, we're going to end the interview with a quick rapid fire questioning for the most cliche baseball questions I could think of. Sound good? Sounds awesome, yeah. Okay, so here we go. Best walk-up song of all time? Let it go, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Can't Stop. Best song? Take me out to the ball game or center field? Center field. Best baseball movie? Bad news bears, money ball or field of dreams? If you build it, they will come field of dreams. Giants or A's? Giants. And finally, best in-game snack? Sunflower seeds, peanuts, gum or all at the same time? All at the same time is going to be pretty hard to do, so I'm going to go bubble gum. Good choice. Jared, thank you so much for taking time to speak with me today. Good luck to you and the rest of the team in the remainder of your season. Thank you very much for having me. Of course. I'm Alexia Inman and I'm Jared Horn. Go Bears!
