Do I need to unscrew some things and tighten some things up in there or just re-caulk it?

Also, I wanted to add that nothing is leaking yet.

There are 2 nuts maybe 3 that require a special "L" shape wrench (Available @ Home Depot). You have to crawl under the cabinet (with flashlight) and tighten the nuts. Laying on a rolled towel @ the edge base of the cabinet sure makes the back comfortable. You'll be there for about 15 minutes. The fact that the faucet is now movable, it would be a wise decision to loosen all nuts enough to lift the faucet about a 1/4" and re-caulk with a quality silicon.

Everybody is right.....But the tool you need to tighten the nuts with is called a "Basin Wrench" Available at any hardware store, in the plumbing dept.
Good Luck.......

hi corona i thought you had water out of center knob when turned on but as far as caulking goes there should be a rubber or plastic gasket that goes between sink and faucet and then tight end down no caulk should ever be used under the sink role of plumbers putty will be better under faucet will not mold like caulk
