You can play what if to the moon and back, but it's hard not to look back on some of those plays and wonder. If IKF is a foot further off the bag at 3rd....
And also, again, from the perspective of a casual baseball fan, did Vladdy and Ernie get jobbed on the Gold Glove? I thought Ernie was a shoo-in at that utility spoe.

It's from the manager too, too timid. I get that the previous game ended with a guy getting doubled off but in this case you have a left handed hitter who always pulls, how is IKF going to get doubled off 3rd? I would have liked to see Varsho fake a bunt or even bunt, he's one of the best bunters on the team, a safety or even suicide squeeze. The game is tied, you can take chances. If they don't work you go to extras.
