[QUOTE="xmikex:652647"]According to Dodgers clubhouse manager Mitch Poole, Gibson heard legendary Dodgers broadcaster Vin Scully say that he would not play in the game. The comments played a large role in Gibson's decision to bat. "I don't remember the exact words that Vin Scully said, but it triggered him when he was in the training room. He decided he wanted to hit, and he asked me to get his uniform," Poole said. "Gibby just said he wanted me to set up for the back-door slider so I did on a tee and we started tossing the ball in the cage. He was hurting bad. Every time he'd swing you could here it." In the meantime, the Dodgers were down to their last out after Eckersley retired the first two batters he faced. In the clubhouse, Gibson continued to swing. Everyone in the stadium, including Lasorda and A's manager Tony La Russa, were under the assumption that Gibson was unavailable. "Right in the middle of swinging, he [Gibson] stopped and told me 'You know, Mitch, this could be the script,'" Poole said. "Then he told me to go tell Tommy he could hit, so I start running down the tunnel screaming, and Tommy comes wobbling over, and I told him Gibby could hit." [/QUOTE]
