Did you know that she was filmed for that interview for almost an entire day in Alaska, and that this "sound bite" was taken extremely out of context. They were talking about a small island (which is territorially Russian), which she could see from her house the Alaskan coast.

He would have been more honest to have said, "You know, I went to some baseball games when I was working in Chicago, but I was far more focused on my work helping the people on the South Side." He still fumbled around the question, trying to figure out how to answer it since he obviously couldn't remember the name of any actual player.

Edit: Jester straightened me out on the whole "from her house" misquote.
