I disagree with that. We had the best left-hander in the history of baseball (Steve Carlton) pitching in Game 6 and they weren't going to win.

It was kind of frightening. They were hitting rocket after rocket after rocket. Their swagger had changed. They were taking extra bases and it seemed like they were bullying us. It was almost like we weren't leading them in the World Series no more.

I thank God to this day that I didn't hit him. It probably would have broken his jaw.
