THIS.

You totally exposed Emma’s utter lack of understanding of baseball strategy. Or maybe Emma is smarter than all of us and intentionally posted a ridiculously poor take in order to generate this very discussion.

+1 This should’ve been the article.

Yeah, as others have said, lots of facts wrong here. First and foremost, there were two outs in the inning which negated the need for anything other than a force out, pop up, etc.

You know SVU writers are drafting this story right now

Joe Panik didn’t hit a sacrifice fly to end Game 3, either, but I guess we are not getting caught up in the details.

Panik doubled off the wall to end Game 3... Zobrist only drove in one run with his double.
Pedantic details aside, the Giants bullpen laid quite the egg.

Hunter Pence, for one, is glad he doesn’t have to return to the North Side.

For fuck sake take your sjw bullshit and stuff it up your ass. INDIANS INDIANS INDIANS!

You meant “cut it jort” right?

That’s the thing. The Cubs players are not an unlikable bunch (outside of Chapman). They’re good players. They don’t enforce unwritten rules. Maddon probably gets too much credit, but for the most part, the team isn’t worth hating. There are some solid fans who supported the team during tough times, but the fans who…

Incredible humanitarian, did a ton of work to make golf accessible to the masses as well as the classes (hell, his personality alone drew working people to take up the game--and if a tournament came by their city, you bet they’d enlist in Arnie’s Army for a day or two), and he wasn’t half bad at spoiling a good walk.

Usually it’s because if you throw behind the batter and the catcher still catches it, then both the current batter and the next batter are both automatically called out. If the catcher misses the ball, then the batter on-deck may shout, “Whack-bat!” and the current batter goes to third base, unless it is already…

What a coincidence, I heard it with a Bob Ross voice in my head
