Another stupid mistake. Never take the bat out of the best hitter in baseball hands. Smfh. Gain nothing by stealing 3rd
With the banged up wrist earlier in the game, and already being in scoring position, I see no benefit to stealing 3rd in that case.
Springer is just horrendous on the bases. Never seen such lack of skill from a dude who looks like a track star.
Geez, George. Just because you finally got a couple steals recently doesn't mean you're now Altuve and have the running aptitude to steal third on a major league catcher.
With Springer's insane OPS, there is no reason to overreach and try to show the world you are the Second Coming of Rickey Henderson
Hearing Martes is warming up gives me nausea, heartburn, indigestion, upset stomach and diarrhea. TMI? I'll never get stealing third with the best hitter in baseball at bat. A single is usually a run with Springer on. Whatev.
He'll be ruled safe, except he came off the bag like Reddick did, except Altuve took the tag off him.
Opposing hitters' BA vs Peacock by pitch count: Pitch 1-25: .126 Pitch 26-50: .203 Pitch 51-75: .256 Pitch 76-100: .333 In other words, we're getting into dicey territory here... given the lead is not terribly large, got to be thinking of who the next pitcher will be here.
