Brandon's Failed Suicide Squeeze

"Listen, I take total responsibility for that. We had the squeeze on, because I knew going in that runs were going to be stingy and I wanted to get one on the board early. I had (coach Gene Lamont ) tell a couple of guys about it, but I didn't have him tell Brandon. That's my fault. If I'd told him to tell Brandon, it would not have caught him by surprise. Normally you don't squeeze in the second inning, totally my screw-up."
