I think it definitely helps the momentum going into Anaheim,
I think that sent everybody a little message. We already had a strong bullpen, and now here's somebody else with experience who can go shut people down.
I think that the biggest part is actually getting the opportunity to be in that situation, ... You have to tip your hat to A.J. It was a heads-up play on his part and he was able to get to first and get there safely.
