[QUOTE="Pharm Frog, post: 841154, member: 34435"] This was a critical play in this game and should have never happened. Instead of sliding into the back edge of the bag (as should be done on almost all steal attempts at 2B), for some inexplicable reason, we try to steal it straight into the middle with a sit-down slide that allows for a tag on the front side of the bag high on the runner. I know that one doesn't necessarily "think" that they'll throw through with a runner at third but "thoughts" shouldn't even be a part of this play. Steal the base the right way and we definitely score an additional run and maybe a few more. On a similar note in the 9th, when the poorly executed bunt went into the air directly toward the mound, there wasn't a lot of "out-of-the-box" hustle demonstrated which could have cost us a DP right then had NM been able to throw down and turn. I can stomach losses, but these types of things gall me as a fan and spectator. [/QUOTE]
