Often when a team is ahead by a few runs (say 3) in the 9th inning they wont' do anything from having a run come in. They will allow the player to steal a base at will, and not try to cut down the run at home should the occasion rise. Their concern shifts to getting the final 3 outs. That being said, BJ did blow his first save of the year yesterday and the Jays definately weren't practicing defensive indifference. The previous two runs he gave up though I think were due to this.
