I wish him the best, and I told him to keep throwing that inside fastball because it sets that slider really good.

It was something like I had seen out of the movies, i couldn't believe my eyes : There were officers on the ground. They were bleeding. They were throwing up. I saw friends with blood all over their faces. I was slipping in people's blood. I was catching people as they fell. It was carnage. It was chaos. I can't even describe what I saw.
