I think (or thought at the time) that he thought Taguchi was going to swing, and was ready to give the big showstopper-game-ending punch out. I'm sure that 99.99% of us would have worse timing than usual in a potential game-ending NLCS call. I actually kind of chuckled a bit - now knowing that it happens to even the best of us.
