"What I knew was what they were doing was wrong then, and it's wrong today. I had a lot of friends who lost their lives protecting the rights and freedoms that flag represented. I'm not sure what I was thinking, except I was angry and I started to run after them.

They were going to put the match to the flag, and it was soaked in lighter fluid. My attitude was if they don't have it, they can't light it, so I scooped the flag up and kept running. I didn't know if it was on fire or not, but I did know one of the guys was not a [baseball prospect]. He threw the can of lighter fluid at me, but he didn't have a good enough arm to hit me.

I still get goose bumps. The crowd reaction was rewarding. The fans made it clear they had a total dislike for what those guys were trying to do. The crowd reaction was inspiring."

Unfortunately it constitutionally protected to be stupid.
