Helsley on to try to send it to extras. I don’t like extra innings because our pitchers always seem to give up lead off doubles. It’s uncanny how they seem to do that every time the last couple of seasons.
I’m not in favor of pulling Jo Jo.
Seen to many misses by Helsley…. ending in home runs.
I hope I’m wrong
Whew…. got out of that one.
They should tweak the runner on second rule to where it is the first scheduled batter who goes to second. Or the manager can instead choose to let the batter hit. So if you have a guy like Aaron Judge, you might choose to let him hit. And if you chose the hit option, the home tram has to do the same.
Okay here, left on left, I would have had Dickerson bunt.
Just can’t get accustomed to the make believe, fairy tale, baserunner. Went into the kitchen to get a bowl of ice cream during the commercial break and come back into the den and at first glance think, “Alright, Eddie with the lead-off double!”
That double play was as slow as I’ve ever seen Arenado look. Maybe they just turned it so fast that it just looked that way to me.
Danny and Jim talking about why not bunt the runner over to third. Dan says guys don’t know how and I agree. Though I feel that’s more on the team and coaches than the players. It’s called practice.
Yeah, you move the runner over and you greatly increase your chance of winning. Don’t know why the Reds did not at least attempt it on the first couple of pitches. But maybe that is it – they don’t know how.
82willie…Yep, the sac-bunt seems to have vanished. The biggest sac-bunt in Cardinal history was probably of the PH variety in the form of the one laid down by Kyle Lohse in the 10th inning of game 6 of the ’11 WS.
