Hoffman just made a mistake and put something over the plate I could hit.

It's a game we probably gave away.

This has been one unusual season.

We've got to put pressure on them, ... They're still three down. I like our chances.

The replays showed it was close to being a homer and I just dropped it.

I had it, ... My wrist was over the wall. When my glove hit the top of the wall, it popped out. When it snapped back is when it popped out.

I had it in the palm of my glove, ... but my wrist hit the top of the fence and knocked it out.

It was a game we needed to win. We're not giving up. That's all you can ask for.
