ball good grip home knew matter quick rushed staying talked turn
I rushed it a little bit. I couldn't get a good grip on it. It was a bang-bang play, a 50-50 shot. We had talked about it right before that if it was a ball to me, I was going home no matter what. If he was staying I wasn't going to turn two. I knew I was going home the whole way, I just couldn't get it quick enough.

I still don't feel 100 percent comfortable up there (at the plate), either. But when I do, I'll know it and I'll tell you.

With the bases loaded and one out, I wanted to stay out of the double play. He got something up in the zone, and I took advantage of it.
