They had runners in scoring position and it was tied at one and with a big hit there things could've gone a different way. We took advantage of an opportunity in the bottom half of the inning without getting many hits. You have to be opportunistic and we've been able to do that the last few weeks.

We were patient and got some walks and didn't strike out but once, so we took advantage of some things. Today we got some extra outs and were able to score guys that got on base other ways than with hits. We hit balls hard, but again we didn't have a lot to show for it.
