The ball was hit, and I ran toward the wall knowing I’m making the catch and thinking about how I’d get the ball back. I stopped in front of the wall and made a very quick U-turn. It was simple to me. You go back, you catch the ball, you spin, you turn, you throw it back to the infield. I don’t like to exaggerate, but I was young and cocky enough to know I could catch any ball in the park. But the important thing was for the runners to stay on the bases. Doby got only one base, and Rosen went back to first.
