Edward Olivares had a big pinch-hit on Saturday.
“Tough spot,” Matheny said. “(He’d had) very limited at-bats this season. To come into that big position and come through with a big double and give us [a lead].

X-rays were negative for Salvador Perez after he was hit by a pitch in the wrist on Saturday, and he played Sunday.
