    In that situation, maybe giving up a run to maybe prevent another run (they didn't know what Yuli would do) is a debatable strategy. Throw looked online but we never got a good replay of it.

    He hit the ball well once, and had another near hit (granted not well hit).

    Down 3, the smart play is do what you can to cut that run at the plate, but of course the fielder has to make a pretty instantaneous decision.

    Right. It's the catcher's call, he's the one who can see everything in front of him and is yelling CUT(+3-4-5 for the base to throw to) or not yelling anything if he wants it to go through.

    We'll never know what happened there on the field.

    Still half-expecting to see Giles walk out there in the 9th...I think I have PTSD.

    I think they'll let LMJ finish it out. Will be interesting to see what they do.

    We definitely learned that in little league. I've always wondered, though, if the cutoff man in a major league stadium can actually hear the person yelling at them to cut it or let it go with all the noise.

    Only threw 16 pitches. He'd be available to pitch a few innings in games 3 or 4 (maybe even start 4) I'd imagine. Maybe even an inning in game 2?

    Hinch learned his lesson with pinch running for White. Also, Marisnick and Straw both in the game.

    I thought about that too. We all know how loud MMP can get.
