From the TBO, Maddon with the use of his number crunching data gave Aybar the rare start:
“I cannot take credit for that,” Maddon said. “This is something we do back at the office, and we really crunch numbers and do so many things. Willy came out on top versus Greinke.”
Aybar went 4-4 with the game winning hit. Madddon was key in letting Aybar know the ball that went through his legs was simply bad break, and to forget about it. And that he Did!
