David Leske

We saw the at-bats he took all spring.

It's not like he's got over five years in the big leagues.

That's still pretty different circumstances to show up in the middle of the game and get the game-winning hit, but I feel really good about it.

I mean, Salvi got us going.

Big pinch hit from Lane.

Great bunt from Isaac.

And then Mikel, you know, that's a tough matchup.

You know, we're going to bet on him.

You know, Massey left on left against Rodgers is tough.

Lawrence against Mikel is tough, too.

But he was patient, loaded him up.

And Rojas, you know, gets the 3-1 and puts a good swing on the ball.

And, you know, thankfully it went up the middle.

So, you know, there was a lot of stuff going on in that inning, but guys really came through.

Yeah.

He's got good stuff.

You know, looking back, I mean, he's had a lot of opportunities, a lot of saves in his career.

I think he kind of thrives in that moment.

You know, so thankfully he was able to execute there.

Some really tough pitches that Buxton laid off.
