usually when i try to go from 3rd to 1st...people just laugh at me and feel bad for me so they let me go back to 3rd :lol:

 

seriously though, you have to be aware of the situation...

I really don't know if you were trying to make a joke about his post, but he got it right.

it's called aggressiveness. maybe you've heard of it...it wins ballgames.

 

or, in this case, it makes the last out at 3rd when that run is meaningless, and the potential winning run is due up. either way.

I read it the same way sporrer17 did. I didn't realize what it actually said until you said something.

Where was the ball hit?

 

If it was to the right side, the guy has some decent speed and the RF is average, it is a risk worth taking.

 

If it was hit to the LF who has a cannon and the guy is slow then yes it was stupid.

 

So which scenario was it?

- M. Ojeda singled to left center, M. Holliday scored, J. Smith out at third

 

The left fielder was Shane Victorino, so it was a guy who appears to have somewhat decent speed, to the left fielder with a decent arm. Could have gone either way.

there are no circumstances that the risk was worth taking. none. his being at third would have done absolutely nothing to help the team win.
