To tell you the truth, when I rounded second, I thought he had it. It looked liked he took it out of his glove. I thought he was messing with me.

For me, it's just a part of the process in trying to get ready. There are still some things out there that I want to try to get better at.

It worked today. We got runs and we won the game.

That's why you play nine innings. It doesn't matter when you score them, although it's always better to score them early. We needed one more, and we couldn't get it.
That's not my job. I show up. I play.
