That play itself wasn't luck. That was just a great outfielder making a great play. But ya there is a lot of bad lick throughout the series.
Dusty shouldn’t be wondering what does it take to get a hit but what does it take to get a hit with 2 outs and RISP
There's no team defense numbers this season from BPro, but the difference in wOBA - xwOBA for this season (suggestive of team defense) really isn't that great.
Correa hit the ball great and it was another bad luck out, but the actual catch wasn’t super special. Jim Edmonds would have waited an extra second before running for a longer extension in the replay.
I’m straining for analogies but this series is almost like the Run and Shoot Oilers. They would rack up a ton of yards and points and lose in the playoffs
