Nice work Cecilliani. Surprised that Travis tried to lay one down there.

[TheAlpineOracle]

I think Martin should have scored there. We all know my thoughts on Rivera.

[JiriHrdina]

Based on where he was - he would have been cut down.

[ben voyonsdonc]

Martin oddly seemed to slide after arriving at third.

I don't think so. He was already rounding 3rd before it was even to the cutoff. Would have had to been a perfect throw.likely would have been rushed pulling the catcher off the plate.

I know you want to give Travis an AB with runners in scoring position, but were struggling hard to score runs.

You see that a lot with Rivera. He hesitates, always late.

He slid to stop making the turn when he saw the stop sign

Watch it again, the cut off man has it in plenty of time.
Martin isn't a great runner. At best it was 50/50, but from what I see - it would have been a bad call to send him.

How about EE running out that double. Sign him.

My fantasy pool thanks you Mr. Tulo and Martin.

Damn I missed the back to back homers!

[JiriHrdina]

Looks safe but not sure if that's conclusive.

[flames_fan_down_under]

Upton gets on base and promptly gets thrown out. Not much he can do right lately.

To be fair his speed is something we need in the Playoffs. He made it a really close play and I think he was safe.

[KelVarnsen]

Dat catch by Martin!

[Roof-Daddy]

Well that was a scary inning. Some great defense to get out of it.

[GreenLantern2814]

They should bring Encarnacion back. He's 33 and a DH with no significant injury history. He has another 9 or 10 years in him.

[JiriHrdina]

Upton starting to warm up.
