"When
you see it on tape it was just a magnificent example of keeping your eye on the
ball and forgetting about the stampeding herd around you...Running with the flight
of the ball and ... actually ignoring that natural instinct of protecting the
front of the body and launching yourself at the ball like he did was extraordinary."
