Yeah, I figured but that just screamed Dave Roberts to me. He seemed like he was untouchable.
It always just shocks me when baseball decisions are made with a spreadsheet instead of eyeballs. But I’m also older than I care to admit and no mlb teams are calling me for advice either.

Walt Weissian.
Monumental fuckup by Smith not to take third.
No sweeps. D-Backs win 2-1.
Great! Make the Phils work for it.
It’s 5-3 Phillies after 7.
Lol Kimbrel in blowing the game again (Gurriel 2B and Thomas HR) to tie the game at 5 bottom of the 8 th
Marte 1B and a hbp 2 on 2 out for AZ still bot 8
Garcia is flying to Phoenix now to not charge the mound.
Pitching change - Alvarado in and gives up a 1B to put the Snakes up 6-5!
The more I watch this series the more amazed I am that the Astros casually swept these guys to get into the position they’re now in.
They got shitty umps in AZ too.
Yeah, this is pretty bad.

NLCS tied 2-2
Shit got real
Harper stole home in the first. 2-0 Phils after 0.5.
Double steal, not a straight steal of home. Throw from 2B took the catcher up the 3B line, and Harper absolutely crashed through him.
I would imagine NL playoff teams think about Harper much like AL playoff teams think about Yordan
