On Starting Pitcher Tyler Webb…
“Tyler has been out there some this year, but he has not been out there a lot lately. Jay [Brown] got some starts that [Webb] was in a position to get for awhile there. I thought he pitched pretty well; his command was pretty good with only one walk. He was a little bit sneaky with his fastball in the upper 80s. He got some off-speed pitches over the plate. He did a nice job and we got him out [of the game] to have him available [for the weekend series against Arkansas].”
On being more aggressive at the plate…
“We tried to be a little bit more aggressive coming out. Not to take away any pitching that we saw the past couple of days, and we needed to be more aggressive and we got our share of his. We really looked good early tonight. The good thing the past couple of days is that we got some guys some work on the mound, we didn’t have to overuse anybody and we got a couple of guys out of the game. We got Whit [Merrifield] out tonight and gave him a little rest. We had [Scott] Wingo out, we put him back in there, but we had him out just to rest him a little bit.”
