辛奇賽後受訪表示,這是他與韋蘭德妻子阿普頓所共同策畫的,他說:「要給一個比我認識的任何人都更喜歡把所有事情規劃好、安排好的人驚喜,真的很難。我們想準備一些特別的東西,而他的家人對他來說就是一切。」辛奇也解釋,通常大聯盟不會讓不是球員或工作人員的人在比賽時進入球場,但對於那些即將退休的準名人堂球星,他們會破例。
對於這項驚喜,韋蘭德坦言:「那真的太棒了,我當時哭得一塌糊塗,還得確定她知道我是因為開心才哭,她從來沒看過我哭成那樣。」
韋蘭德退場時與一家三口擁抱,隨後與隊友擊掌,並向全場球迷脫帽致意,最後牽著家人的手走下休息區階梯。韋蘭德說:「與家人在一起就是我退休後最期待的事情,能夠和他們一起離開球場,為自己的生涯畫下完美句點,這就是最好的結局。」
