He didn't even realize his finger was injured until sometime later, and when he did, he took matters into his own hands -- Frank Thomas Jersey literally."I wish I could tell you when it happened ," Stafford told media, via . "I don't know. I looked down at a certain point on a drive in the second quarter -- I think the one we kicked the field Melky Cabrera Jersey goal on -- I just looked down and felt a little pre sure on it.
