There's nothing to lose. He probably won't hit again tonight anyways.

This team will have to take chances eventually before the season is over. If it's anyone else on base the score would have been 5-4 and the inning still on.

Leaving the slowest runner in the majors in when he's in a scoring position doesn't make a lot of sense.

Yeah the other day they pinch run for Schneider on 2nd, lost his bat and likely he would’ve made the difference in extra innings. Here he doesn’t. I think Schneider makes some decent moves but a lot that are just by the numbers that backfire.

It’s a real indictment on Springer that Shulman is hoping that the Jays get to Davis ####ing Schneider. Love Schneider but Springer should be the guy…he’s paid to be the guy.

Got everything you could've hoped but Schneider didn't have his usual magic and Vladdy is, well, Vladdy.

Jays now 3.5 back and falling fast. I think this season is toast.
