Won, 15-13, on a last-second field goal,

I'm sure (rust) factored in. His breaking stuff was not as sharp tonight. He has pitched very sparingly as of late. That all comes into play.

Mr. [Dave] Littlefield extended that opportunity, ... That gave me an opportunity to grow as a manager and as a man.

[All in all] I'm proud of the job I did,

It was the type of play I thought would energize us. But again, we kept on swinging and missing.

I felt Kip had given us all he had. Torres was a better option for us in that situation. It had nothing to do with getting the ball up or pitch count. It's just what I saw.
