Snit benched Ronnie for not running but Duvall plays on for pure stupidity. Makes sense.
It is 3 of the last 4 postseason games going back to game 7 against LA.Every postseason we end up with ridiculous baserunning blunders
Why is an infield trap play non reviewable?
I’m not as mad about this one, Morton was on deck. If he goes halfway and waits, he’s on second with two outs and the pitcher up. If it did drop and he went halfway, he probably doesn’t score. It was overly aggressive, but at least a defendable decision.
If you want to say that the Braves would have pinch hit for Morton with bases loaded and one out and/or men on first and second with two outs, then I guess the analysis is different.
A bad decision, but a do or die in that situation is not so bad. I doubt they pinch hit for Morton with runners on first and second if they let him lead off the next inning.
