It was a 3-0 pitch. Is he supposed to take it and get on base? No when the game is out of reach like that all you want to do is get it over with fast. Which means you swing at everything and just try to get the game over. We’ve all seen this with much smaller leads like 6-8. You get out in front like that and the quality of at bats go down. You just hack and try to get it over.
