I thought all night about the home run – video
Trying to leg out a triple, Sandoval tripped and bellyflopped onto the infield dirt, where he didn’t move for a few moments.
“I didn’t think he was going to get up,” Manager Bruce Bochy said. “He looked like a turtle on his back.”
He got up. And two innings later won the game, with a three-run walk-off home run, his first ever.
“It was exciting,” said Sandoval, who went home and watched the highlights on TV. “I couldn’t sleep. I thought all night about the home run.”
That’s our Panda, Pablo Sandoval’s double, trip, and homer:
