Yeah, I get that, but that runner is never on first if you just take the out. If Gordon has to elevate the ball to the outfield to get the run in, the entire AB is different.
I'm not absolving Wong of being an idiot. He's proven that he's a ****ing moron. Still, you don't ever give up outs, and you never, ever hand them back.

Selfish baseball of Adams here. With a shift that severe, he should be laying it down the third base line.

Verducci is stupid saying he picked the Dodgers because they were in the National League, He picked the Dodgers because they offered him the most money and in his presser Zack said, hey i come here because of the money. He's a straight shooter.

If a team is going to bunt, as brad Pitt said, let them. Take the out

It's a classic example of managers outsmarting themselves. If I were a GM, I would legit fine my players for trying to do too much in situations like that. Just throw the ball over the middle of the plate around the letters and take the ****ing out.

It's astounding to me: you can only win the game by scoring runs, and you can only score by reaching safely.
If a team is giving up a batter, let them do it. Conversely, don't let them on base for free.

Matheny says it wasn't a wheel play? They hold their positions? He needs to look at the tape. It was a full blown telegraphed wheel play.
