"I’ll tell you what, I will never forget the first pitch, because as I wound up and turned to look at the plate, it was — I don’t even know how to describe it. I was almost blinded by all the flashcubes and lights that went off. I don’t know how many people flashed their camera at that time, but I totally lost home plate. Somebody said later it was close. Well, I couldn’t argue. I had no idea where it went."
