Just one of those things. I thought I had good reaction. I didn't get it, just like everyone else. If I'm playing six inches to my left, I dive and I'm able to catch it. It was the type of play made only by Brooks Robinson in the 1970 World Series.
Mere mortals have no chance.
The ball was not misplayed at all. It was a line drive that he made a great play to almost catch. Febles didn't think he did anything special. I wanted to come up and do what I always do. Down five or six runs, you don't want to bunt.
