The main thing we've been focusing on is our team defense and I thought our team defense was very, very good today on a very hard and fast infield. So I was pleased with that.
More Quotes from Ned Yost:
It's a tough situation (for Fernandez), but sometimes you just have to go through it. It was a tough situation for Mike, too, because he pitched well enough to make our team. Either one of those guys could have made the team. It's just that Jared has a little more flexibility in terms of what he can do for us. It helps the makeup of our staff.Ned Yost
The offense is starting to kick in now and that's a good sign. It shows the character of your club when you're down 11-2 and come back.

We figured that would be a good chance to gamble and take a shot. Davies was throwing the ball very well at that point. The odds of trying to get a two-out hit probably weren't in our favor. We thought we'd go ahead and gamble, and it worked.
