"Everybody talks about the pressure on me for that at-bat (9th Inning Home Run, Game 5, 1986 ALCS), but there was no pressure. Defensive replacements aren't supposed to hit closers. Gene Mauch caught a lot of flak for changing pitchers, but any manager would take that matchup one-hundred percent of the time. Donnie Moore against a defensive replacement who had five at-bats in two weeks? You gotta go with those odds. They're in the Angels' favor. Basically I was looking for a way to get back to our dugout after striking out." - Dave Henderson (Post Game Interview, 10/12/1986)
