He made a very good pitch to Linden. In other circumstances, it's a bat that's broken in half and a soft single to right field, but as a result of the sacrifice bunt that followed a walk, it was a game-winning hit.
More Quotes from Jim Tracy:
I'm not saying things would have necessarily been different if Sean was in the lineup but I think it would have helped to have a hitter who combined to strike out less 100 times over the last two seasons up in the situation. You need to make contact with a man on second and none out, and I think Sean would have given us a great chance of doing that.Jim Tracy
Ian Snell made an adjustment from what he was doing early on and got the ball down to where he could be very effective. He forced the opposition to have to swing the bat. He got himself some early-count outs. As a result, he kept his pitch count in order and was able to go through the fourth inning.

Both passed the test. That's good. We don't have to make a decision today and the decision we do make won't be an easy one. That's what you're always hoping for, tough decisions.

Those are young pitchers who made the adjustments, learned how important it is to get ahead in the count. There isn't much I can say positive about the first 3 23 innings of this game. Oliver had a decent first inning but after that there was no command to speak of.

If there are two areas right now that you'd like to see us improve it's the consistency of our starting pitching and our execution in game-changing at-bats.

It's a series win in a ballpark where this club hasn't lost too much. There were just a lot of very positive things tonight.
