fastball hitter home plate regular run seen throw trying
I haven't seen the replay, ... Obviously, it got a lot of the plate. But that's what I was trying to do. I was trying to throw a fastball over the plate because I know he isn't a home run hitter in the regular season. He hit zero, right?

It was one of those deals where you had no room for error, ... They had tremendous power hitters and guys that could take you deep. That being said, you have to locate and be able to keep all our stuff down. I just enjoyed competing in that game tremendously. It was a great feeling for me.

It gave me chills to watch Baggy do that. We've got some momentum going right now. We're doing the things we need to do to win games, and when Baggy comes off the bench and gets a hit like that, it just makes you feel like it's kind of meant to be. We'll hopefully run with it now.
