Montero hit a fly ball with a runner on third and one out. It wasn't deep enough because of Marte's cannon, but he did what he was supposed to do.

Yes, Rizzo would've been hosed.

Considering it was Marte out there, yeah.

[Schwarber Fan]

Unbelievable futility with men at 3rd. We're gonna end up losing 3-5 games because of that alone.

yes. and marte threw a lazer right to home plate. he'd have been out by a mile

Good point. Marte has a rocket.

I've got to consider some game thread forum bans during the playoffs.

Looking at the feature request queue, not sure we'll get that one in.
