If somebody takes the bull by the horns, it makes sense to keep the hot hand out there. We'll see. It won't be easy because guys all want a lot of playing time, but we can make it work.

It was a slugfest type game. We swung the bats good. They had that one big inning.

I'm grateful for it. Now it's my job to make it work.
