What Sam said

So writing on deadline can be a chore, and sometimes you can't get everything into your stories. Here is the game story, on deadline.


Here's what is missing: what third base coach Sam Perlozzo said, after Roy Oswalt ran right through his stop sign in the best moment of the night in the Phillies 6-1 win over the Giants in Game 2 of the NLCS on Sunday night.



Q: Were you yelling anything?
Perlozzo: I usually throw my hands up in the air and say right here, right here. But you’ve got a crowd out there.

Q: What think when he blows by you?
Perlozzo: “I wouldn’t exactly call that blowing.”


Q: Did you think he would be safe at home?
Perlozzo: “Absolutely not. I think I put my hands up on top my head like, oh no. I went in there to home plate with him and I was a little worried.”

Q: Did he almost run you over?
Perlozzo: “It was an extremely wide turn, which was part of the problem... I had my hands over my eyes at that time.”
