    They did a whole special on it on OTL today. Apparently, Gibson was told by....I don't remember who....that a 3-2 pitch would automatically be a backdoor slider. He then, when the count got to 3-2, stepped out to look at his source, who nodded. Obviously, he then stepped in the box and hit a backdoor slider out of the park....

    Interesting, eh?
