“You know what, 10 years later I can tell you about the impact of what I say ,” Ortiz said Sunday. “To be honest with you, I’m so proud it was taken that way. You don’t know, sometimes somebody needs to push that button. I think I did. “Right now, I can tell you, the feedback coming from the people worldwide from everywhere I go. I did something good and I’m pretty proud of it.”“We ended up winning, right. It was a real movie,” he said. “It was a real-life story and we were all part of it."___ AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/mlb and https://twitter.com/AP_Sports
