Oh, it's completely ridiculous alright.

But at least it's not a hill in the field of play!

Wow, that was game over if he didn't catch that.

I still think Giants win this. Cubs have no one to go to if this stretches an inning or two.

Why do we still use batting average? Like what a stupid statistic. OBP is obviously more important. To suggest that Posey didn't "earn" that base on the walk is totally ridiculous. Walks are totally earned.

Going for the win. Like Smoltz said, that's the right move.

Nah, as they mentioned on the telecast, that's a gamble worth taking, if that ball drops in, the Giants win.

It's kind of nice to watch an intense baseball game and have zero stress.

Runner on second, 1 out. Cubs have to cash this in.
