Just want to point out that you are wasting keystrokes if you are discussing any hypothetical scenario that begins with “if Russell gets a hit” He could’ve ran for Almora instead of bunting into a DP.
Just want to emphasize that if Russell gets a hit Gore can’t pinch run because Joe put him in the lineup in order to get Contreras an at bat then Zo. Which led him to burn Zo, Bote, and Caratini.
