PHILADELPHIA -- Cameron Rupp hadn't taken a shot this hard since his days playing high school football in Texas.
Tyler Goeddel threw out Eugenio Suarez with Rupp holding onto the ball following a violent collision to end the game and the Philadelphia Phillies held on to beat the Cincinnati Reds 4-3 on Saturday night.
"I sacrificed," said Rupp, who wasn't aware of an abrasion on top of his forehead. "I don't how I caught it."
Rupp played middle linebacker and fullback at Prestonwood Christian Academy in Plano, Texas.
