    At the end of the eighth inning, Chris Bassitt struck out Miguel Andujar, picked up some dirt from the Coliseum mound and put it in his pocket: “I don’t know if I’ll ever see this place again," Bassitt said.

    Lawrence Butler on the Coliseum vibes today: "That was by far the coolest game I’ve ever played in. The coolest crowd I’ve ever played in front of. Greatest atmosphere I’ve ever played in front of. This last game will stick with me forever.”
