I think if Brad had made his pitches, we would have had a different outcome, plain and simple,

The umpire said he went to his mouth. It was a bad call. It was a mistaken call. It's unfortunate that the game, in my opinion, turned on that. You don't know what's going to happen, but it takes it out of the players hands. He did not go to his mouth. He was sweating profusely on his face. He wiped his eyebrow (and came) across his nose and caught it on his face. It was a bad call, plain and simple.

It's not a God-given talent. There's some hitters that have an opposite-field stroke that can do it, but it's a learned skill. It's just discipline and doing it. That's all it is. Plain and simple.
