00:00Saskia will be followed by Getman and then Jody Reed.
00:03Here's the 0-1 delivery, swung on, driven toward right center.
00:06Finley ranging right into the gap, onto the warning track.
00:09He reaches up and he makes the catch!
00:11And then slams into the wall and then hangs onto it!
00:16And Finley may have shaken himself up a little bit on the collision.
00:21Hello, Steve Finley, and welcome to Baltimore.
00:24Steve Finley getting a standing ovation after making a tremendous play.
00:34Richie Ben Salzee, Orioles trainer, is on his way out there.
00:38But Finley says, nah, it's okay, I'm all right.
00:41Go on back, he says.
00:45Finley running full speed to his right, down to the warning track in right center field,
00:49made a running, one-handed, leaping, stab, and then smashing into the wall.
00:54And that may be where he shook himself up a little bit.
00:57He had the arm fully extended, the right arm.
01:00And as he reached out to catch it, the arm was the first thing that hit that fence,
01:06and then the body crushed in after it.
01:08And always a problem in that situation of maybe dislocating his shoulder
01:13or spraining the arm or something.
01:17And they're all out there with him now, Frank Robinson and Richie Ben Salze,
01:20just to make sure he's all right.
01:22They're looking at the shoulder area right now, it appears.
01:26Richie and Frank Robinson not wanting to take any chances with their prized rookie.
01:31Yesterday, he attempted a diving catch on the sloppy going at RFK Stadium.
01:37And I bought it by Tony Pena of the Cardinals and was very slow in getting up after that play.
01:43But he said afterward that he was merely shaken up, that he just had the wind knocked out of him,
01:48which was good news.
01:50And apparently he's going to be all right now, too.
01:52And again, as Frank and Richie Lee, another ovation for Steve Finley.
