I get that, you never want to make the first or third out at third or home.

Vladdy popped out to start the 11th. What's to say that wouldn't have happened if he was held at third?

I didn't think taking that chance was as egregious as you think.

So, agree to disagree.



Because pitching to Vlad with 2 on, or pitching to a guy in IKF who doesn't chase balls with bases loaded is a hell of a lot different than pitching to them with no one on, wouldn't you agree?

It's pitching out of the stretch in high, high leverage. It's completely different than the 11th.

That send took the game out of Vladdy's hands, their best player.

We can agree to disagree, but I'm right

Just square and bunt. Smoltz is 100% correct.

I see your point, but if the Dodgers had misplayed it and he scored, would we still be having this conversation?

We'd be saying, "What a great send."

It took a good play to get him.

First pitch bases clearing double would work.

Walking to get to Freddie makes at least more sense.

Can't believe they did it. Right call for me regardless if it works out or not.

I haven't figured out yet whether I am going to say "I love baseball" or "I hate baseball" at the end of this game. Its definitely going to be one or the other

Well, it's got a few of us talking to ourselves, so I don't know either.
