00:00Grand slam, Salazar was motioned to you before that pitch.

00:03What did you want you to do there?

00:07Yeah, it was just a pitch that I wanted to throw.

00:10I called for that pitch, so I wanted to throw that pitch.

00:13Unfortunately, he was able to get it and hit it for a grand slam.

00:16And I was able to locate it.

00:20And afterwards, what happened with us, we just got crossed up.

00:24I called for that pitch.

00:25I threw it, and we got crossed up.

00:28When we went down to the dugout, I excused myself with him,

00:31and I said sorry to him, and I take full responsibility for that.

00:34Was it intentional for him?

00:36No, no, it was not intentional.

00:40I called for a sinker, and that's the pitch I wanted.

00:43There was a lot of noise, and I thought that was what he wanted me to throw.

00:46But no, it was not intentional.

00:48Yeah, I mean, here at the moment, obviously, it was a big spot for the Yankees.

00:52It was the stadium was loud.

00:54I thought I pressed the button, but I pressed the wrong button.

00:56I was expecting another pitch, but that wasn't it.
