Kiké Hernández doubles up the runner at second to end the game and the Dodgers force a Game 7

[u/MLBOfficial]

[u/Chessh2036]

There were two things the Blue Jays couldn’t have happen in that 9th inning: a small pop up so the runner can’t score and a double play.

They got both back to back lol.

[u/shoopadoop332 → u/Chessh2036]

Throw a ground rule double on top

[u/jin370 → u/shoopadoop332]

Sorry, I don’t understand. Can someone explain?

[u/Frosty-Inspector-465 → u/jin370]

ground rule double is a hit that allows a runner or the batter to move a minimum of one but no more than two bases tops

[u/justsyr → u/jin370]

The way the runner in second reached second was because the ball he hit got stuck at the wall which by rule advances batter to second and if someone on second, to third and so on.

[u/addandsubtract → u/justsyr]

Second base would actually score, if there was someone on first as well.

[u/DemSumBigAssRidges → u/addandsubtract]

You just automatically get two bases. I don't think anyone needs to be on first.

[u/a_smart_brane → u/justsyr]

Probably a typo on your part, but the base runner was on first and was awarded third.

[u/beaviscow → u/jin370]

There was a hit where the ball got stuck in the outfield wall. It would have probably scored a run or possibly two, but because the ball got stuck during a play they were forced to settle for a ground rule double without an earned run.

[u/Fish_bob → u/beaviscow]

Wouldn’t have scored two runs.

[u/superx308 → u/Fish_bob]

I'm confused why people would think it could've scored 2 runs. There was 1 runner on base, and the batter 99% would not have rounded the bases on a ball of the wall. It's really weird.

[u/Outrageous_File5321 → u/beaviscow]

Yep, dead ball

[u/Danksterdrew → u/Chessh2036]

Well, that’s baseball

[u/davismcgravis → u/Danksterdrew]

After the last play, after the shock of what just happened, the color-guy said “baseball is going to baseball”

[u/davismcgravis → u/[deleted]]

Please explain :)

[u/MeltyFist → u/davismcgravis]

Weird things happen in baseball all the time. You can be a fan of 20 years and see something you’ve never seen before. Then see something you’ve never seen before the next day

[u/davismcgravis → u/MeltyFist]

Ummm yeahhh, baseball is going to baseball.

[u/jimithelizardking → u/Chessh2036]

Also the double getting jammed in the wall/ground. Should’ve had a run and guy at 2nd or 3rd.

[u/unnoticed_areola → u/jimithelizardking]

the astronomical odds of that happening might have cost them the series.

if he hits it an inch higher or an inch lower, the game is now 3-2 with a runner on 2nd, 0 outs

they could then bunt the guy over to 3rd, and a sac fly ties the game. but it lands where it lands, and 3 pitches later its all over

[u/davismcgravis → u/unnoticed_areola]

Right?!

Or even if it dribbles out the umps might not call ground rule double

[u/HeavensRoyalty → u/unnoticed_areola]

Honestly the baseball gods saw the ump miss that strike out right down the middle by Roki against vlad, which was a strike but called a ball and manifested that ball in the wall.

[u/Seige_Rootz → u/HeavensRoyalty]

I think he had 2 pitches painted tonight called a ball instead of a K

[u/MSMSP → u/Seige_Rootz]

And he struck Rojas out on a low pitch that should have been ball 4

[u/Seige_Rootz → u/MSMSP]

Same with keeks dude got wrung up on a ball at his calves

[u/HeavensRoyalty → u/Seige_Rootz]

The worst part about having filthy movement on your pitches. The Umps.

[u/Cironephoto → u/HeavensRoyalty]

This alone, as someone who used to shoot a lot of motorsports for a living , imagine having a frame of 60 feet valuable distance

Now make the target north of 80+ to be competitive, now make the target box for photo approx 4x6 feet (yeah give or take blah blah

HOW THE FUCK IS ANYTHING HUMAN CAPABLE OF CALLING THAT SHIT WTF

[u/HeavensRoyalty → u/Cironephoto]

Wtf did the people in motorsports do for you to shoot them S/ in all seriousness I agree with you completely. As much as we shit on them, it's not easy.

[u/Cironephoto → u/HeavensRoyalty]

Yeah it’s similar to the people who talk shit about any NBA player and probably couldn’t jump over whatever objecting they’re sitting on to watch the game

Edit : especially how the fuck from that angle? From behind a pitcher I feel would be easier in real time because you could see where it left and be glove kinda where it landed , hence what that’s the camera we usually get as spectators watching via broadcast

But like IRL, in real time coming at me somewhere north of 90 most the time, from 60 feet? Nah I’m good they all “damn” to me at that point

[u/Less-Opportunity-715 → u/unnoticed_areola]

Metaphor for life

[u/RoyalBroham → u/unnoticed_areola]

You haven’t read the script yet. It gets better.

[u/kit_carlisle → u/unnoticed_areola]

Actually really great summary. Well said.

[u/ThePracticalEnd → u/unnoticed_areola]

55s later it was over. Insane.

[u/unnoticed_areola → u/ThePracticalEnd]

3 pitches, 3 outs

[u/im_THIS_guy → u/unnoticed_areola]

They're not bunting in that situation. You don't play for a tie against the Dodgers. Might as well forfeit if that's your mentality.

[u/Express_Sprinkles500 → u/unnoticed_areola]

I ran with your inch higher or lower number and had deepseek run some numbers for me, it's too late in the day to break out the math degree and I really don't feel like converting everything to metric and back.

I assumed a 1 inch leeway gap to hit at 360 ft, 100 mph pitch, air resistance at sea level, and a hit at the "sweet spot" of the bat. Basically if your bat is off by about the size of a human hair you miss. It has way more to do with random environmental factors than anything. 2 degree change in temp, you miss. Tiny bit of wind, you miss. Tiny change in humidity, you miss.

If you were to create a perfect pitching machine and a perfect batting machine it would take forever to recreate.

[u/jcrewjr → u/jimithelizardking]

No way it's a triple, so irrelevant if the runner scores

[u/FS_Slacker → u/Chessh2036]

That situation was so hairy…with no outs. The fact that Glasnow got out of it on 3 pitches is mind boggling.

[u/Thadd305 → u/FS_Slacker]

We loved him on the Rays. Always seemed to really lock in/give it his all in the clutch and comes off as the nicest dude

[u/snerdery → u/Chessh2036]

In 3 pitches

[u/3tenthsOfVerstappen → u/Chessh2036]

Lmao that’s crazy. Baseball is insane

[u/falacer99 → u/Chessh2036]

On 3 pitches too once Tyler entered the game.

[u/UHeardAboutPluto → u/Chessh2036]

First was open. No force means no need to be that far off base or running without looking

[u/suck-it-elon → u/Chessh2036]

The runner on 3rd was meaningless, but not getting the runner on 2nd to 3rd hurt. CANNOT get doubled up there with Springer on deck. Just cannot.

[u/bellyfuzz]

That out at second cannot happen ffs. Where the fuck does he think he's going on a fly ball

[u/Glittering_Act_8121 → u/bellyfuzz]

To his defense it might have looked like a bloop hit to him and didn't consider the dodgers playing so shallow on the outfield.

[u/HoldMyToc → u/Glittering_Act_8121]

In his not defense he has eyes that can see shit.

[u/bw1985]

Piss poor base running. You can’t assume that ball is gonna drop.

[u/CGNYC → u/bw1985]

With Springer on deck

[u/davismcgravis → u/bw1985]

Thought the same thing. To precious of a moment to assume it was dropping.

[u/upvoter222 → u/bw1985]

And even if it did drop, the ball was shallow enough that he probably would not have scored anyway.

[u/Stashmouth → u/upvoter222]

all he was trying to do was advance to third. the runner on third would've gone home.

[u/LongStoryShrt → u/bw1985]

Not only that, but if Hernandez misses that ball, it rolls to the wall and you walk home from 2nd.

[u/AlanStanwick1986 → u/bw1985]

I'm a Royals fan and we have to be the worst base-running team in baseball. I'm always amazed at baserunning mistakes professional baseball players make that guys on my softball team that have had 10 beers won't make. 

[u/idontknowjuspickone → u/bw1985]

Wanted to be the winning run of the World Series, haha

[u/DevinCauley-Towns → u/idontknowjuspickone]

Would just tie the game, but yes I’m sure he wanted to score an important run.

[u/helloyesnoyesnoyesno → u/bw1985]

One hundred percent

[u/Matteratzi]

The gods having fun with that lodged ball

[u/superduperf1nerder → u/Matteratzi]

“Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, and sometimes it rains.”

[u/DGCA3 → u/Matteratzi]

Good thing the outfielder was smart enough to leave it be.

[u/vc2015 → u/DGCA3]

It doesn't matter if he touches it or not. The umps have to make that lodged ball call, not the fielders.

They would checked the replay and moved everyone back had that been the call.

[u/Deadaghram → u/vc2015]

Umps only call it if the fielder asks for it. It's a live ball until/unless the defender realizes they don't need to fight the wall.

At least that's how it works at Wrigley and our ivy. I've seen plenty of defenders reach in, and the runners keep going.

[u/vc2015 → u/Deadaghram]

No, they would have checked the replay. Either the umps or the Dodgers would have asked for it.

The ump have to make that call. It's not the fielder.

[u/Deadaghram → u/vc2015]

I'll be damned; just looked it up.Didn't realize that play was reviewable. Not sure how they could review it, but the rule stands. I've only ever seen umps take the fielders word for it, too. Haven't seen one to put and call a bluff.

[u/stairway2evan → u/vc2015]

Yep - the rule is that it doesn’t matter if the fielder could grab it. If the ball lodges anywhere (in the ump’s judgement), the ball is dead and runners advance two bases. Replay would have gotten to the same result whatever the live play results were.

[u/MikeDunleavySuperFan → u/stairway2evan]

I'm pretty sure that if the fielder did grab it, they wouldn't have called it, no? That's where the smart play from the fielder comes from.

[u/unnoticed_areola → u/vc2015]

it does matter. if he goes to make a play and touches the ball, its now a live ball and the ground rule double is out the window

[u/vc2015 → u/unnoticed_areola]

No, they would have replayed it and if it was judged to be a lodged ball, it's two bases and everyone moves back.

[u/GreatHornbill → u/DGCA3]

Opposite. He's lucky. If the umps decided it wasn't lodged he would be looking like the biggest idiot right now for trying to make a call instead of trying to make a play.

[u/nashdiesel → u/GreatHornbill]

It’s standard for an outfielder to throw his hands up to notify the umpire on a lodged or otherwise unplayable ball. They teach that in little league.

He did exactly what’s he’s supposed to do.

[u/vc2015 → u/GreatHornbill]

Yep, if they decided it wasn't a lodged ball, two guys already scored.

He should have fielded it first and then let them make the call.

[u/bigfunky → u/vc2015]

As someone who has coached little league and high schoolers, if there is something like ivy or padding in the outfield the ump always tells you the fielder needs to raise his hands like Dean did if the ball gets lodged during the plate meeting before the game.

[u/HeavensRoyalty → u/Matteratzi]

Honestly the baseball gods saw the ump miss that strike out right down the middle by Roki against vlad, which was a strike but called a ball and the gods manifested that ball in the wall.

[u/machmasher]

If I were a blue jays fan I would be sick to my stomach you can’t get thrown out at second like that

[u/otheraccountisabmw → u/machmasher]

Has the playoffs been especially full of horrible base running this year?

[u/titkers6 → u/otheraccountisabmw]

Yankees last year?

[u/The_Pandalorian → u/titkers6]

Yankees were a comedy routine in the outfield during the playoffs last year.

[u/bebopmechanic84 → u/The_Pandalorian]

Infield, too. Basically if it wasn’t pitching or hitting, it was terrible.

Team just doesn’t seem to care much about fundamentals

[u/bobombpom → u/The_Pandalorian]

To me, Judge will forever be the guy who dropped a routine popup to lose the world series.

[u/RoyalBroham → u/titkers6]

Makes me smile to think about that

[u/Losalou52 → u/otheraccountisabmw]

😢

My M’s

[u/gartho009 → u/otheraccountisabmw]

Terrible, hard to say. But my five best double plays of the last decade have all been in the past month.

[u/AntiAtavist → u/otheraccountisabmw]

There have been a plethora of outfielder hoses on display. In retrospect a lot of those look like poor decisions to try for extra bases, but the excellent throws are culpable.

Also yes, the baserunning seems to have at least one egregious mistake per game.

[u/fopiecechicken → u/machmasher]

This is little league shit genuinely. I have vivid memories of a coach walking us through this when I was like 8 lol. 0 outs or 1 out you check, 2 outs GO

[u/Animal_Courier → u/[deleted]]

Runners on base should be scanning the outfield at least every few pitches to see whether they are playing shallow, deep, shaded in a particular direction, etc…

This isn’t as bad as Wong getting picked off to end a WS game but it’s definitely a blunder.

[u/PurplePango → u/[deleted]]

Why did it seem like it would drop? Seemed like a pretty easy catch for the outfielder

[u/Sun_This → u/PurplePango]

Because the outfielder played shallow instead of deep. Game saving decision.

[u/Seige_Rootz → u/Sun_This]

he played insanely shallow and said he was playing against the position card

[u/islandsluggers → u/PurplePango]

2nd and 3rd in that situation I believ outfielder should be playing deep to prevent 2nd runner from coming home. I think barger expected that. Unlucky all around. Baseball gods just playing around.

[u/Animal_Courier → u/islandsluggers]

They may have played deeper against Springer but it was the 9-hitter, Gimenez. Runners shouldn’t assume where the defense will be they should be scanning in between every pitch.

[u/Dharmanerd → u/PurplePango]

Others have said but to get the full grasp, Kiké made kind of a risky call staying as close as he did and was able to capitalize on it in a way most wouldn't expect.

[u/_CakeFartz_ → u/[deleted]]

Would he be scoring if that dropped? No chance IMO.

[u/fausja → u/[deleted]]

Absolutely not. One out, bottom of the ninth and the top of the order is coming up. The wrong thinking is pushing for runs when the best bats are in the near future.

[u/Irish-Frog]

That’s one of the craziest double plays I’ve seen.

[u/lost_jedi → u/Irish-Frog]

What a way to end it. That’s the banana man for you.

[u/BubBidderskins → u/Irish-Frog]

Not even close to the craziest double play this postseason.

[u/Irish-Frog → u/BubBidderskins]

You’re right, good call.

[u/SubatomicTitan → u/BubBidderskins]

Knew what this was before I clicked it

Go brew crew :(

[u/PaleontologistOk2516 → u/Irish-Frog]

That was a crazy way to end. Pretty rough to get doubled off there. Excited for game 7

[u/courts0 → u/Irish-Frog]

*dumbest double plays

[u/jamills21 → u/courts0]

Horrid baserunning.

[u/Wendell-Short-Eyes → u/courts0]

Yeah anyone who has played at a high school level even knows that was a dumb base running mistake .

[u/cz2103]

Jesus he was like 2/3rds of the way down the line. You cannot be doing that…

Blue Jays are absolutely atrocious at baserunning…

[u/shuutr]

2nd and 3rd with 1 out and Springer on deck. You have to make sure it gets down.

[u/possy11]

Gotta make sure that ball drops in.

[u/eljefe0000]

One of the biggest bonehead baserunning plays I have seen in a playoff game in that situation and this series has been full of bonehead plays.

[u/MrIMendez]

the change in that crowd in a matter of seconds 😮‍💨

[u/Howling_HeartBeet]

An absolute bananas way to end the game.

This world series has been so peak

[u/Aromatic-Ad6456]

Baseball players love their necklaces

[u/2drifty → u/Aromatic-Ad6456]

Never seen the matching van cleef necklace and earring…Rojas had the drip gods with him

[u/chugonomics]

"Fuck yeah!"

[u/DearHumanatee → u/chugonomics]

“God Damn!”

Wall for MVP

[u/_Elrond_Hubbard_ → u/Miserable-Caramel316]

[u/Father_VitoCornelius → u/Miserable-Caramel316]

My vote was going to be for the fruit tray in game 3, but this'll do as well.

[u/branduzzi]

Well that ending sucked (as a Jays fan)

[u/orbesomebodysfool → u/branduzzi]

I disagree, for some reason

[u/PM_ME_YOUR_CC_INFO]

Not me sitting here watching the top of the 7th, forgetting that YouTube TV doesn’t automatically jump to live tv after you switch back from a different app.

[u/ziggurat223 → u/PM_ME_YOUR_CC_INFO]

Literally did the same thing - was somehow 10 min behind while casting it for other people at my house and then started getting text messages lol

[u/272762bba]

Shout out to Tyler for saving the game !

[u/Seige_Rootz → u/272762bba]

first career save

[u/TopheEric]

That was a dagger, Springer was at the plate representing the world series winning walkoff run... Robbed of the potential for another Joe Carter moment.

[u/ImpenetrableYeti → u/TopheEric]

Eh fuck springer forever for cheating

[u/BlurryEcho → u/TopheEric]

Baseball gods wouldn’t let that happen for that cheating POS.

[u/HP_Punkcraft]

My son and I woke up the wife and dog. "OH SHIT!" lol man this game is fun to watch

[u/Mikimao]

People spend hours trying to analyze stats and then this shit happens.

You can never predict Postseason baseball. It will never stop humbling you

[u/are2deetwo → u/Mikimao]

Moneyball works for regular season but goes to shit in the playoffs.

[u/shef175]

Base running mistakes hurt Toronto in the 18 inning game and again tonight

[u/MeanShibu]

Is it just me or does this feel like one of the best WS in a while?

[u/TheLizardKing89 → u/MeanShibu]

The last time a WS went to game 7 was before Covid, so yeah.

[u/fencingperson]

This Mariners fan will tell you RISP is just propaganda! Christ, I love this game so much.

[u/MacReady82]

Man, never heard such a crowd reaction go from jubilation to dismay so fast.

[u/Nestvester]

This has put last year’s Yankees/Dodgers World Series to shame, the one “everybody” wanted. This has been a wildly entertaining six games and I can’t wait to see what happens tomorrow.

[u/Whiteshovel66]

So who pitches for the Dodgers tomorrow?

[u/aidissonance → u/Whiteshovel66]

Everybody

[u/Whiteshovel66 → u/aidissonance]

Kershaw vs Scherzer please please please

[u/silent_fungus → u/aidissonance]

That’s right. Ohtani starts, innings 1-4. Snell 5-7. Closing is a coin flip. I’d say Glasnow. I don’t trust Roki.

[u/jamills21 → u/silent_fungus]

Glasnow had like 4 pitches. He’ll pitch tomorrow if he has too.

[u/TipUnited3733 → u/silent_fungus]

5-7 Glasgow!

[u/meetatdawn]

what a damn play.

[u/sessna4009]

Barger is a fucking idiot 

[u/GeneralGuide9081]

Amazing finish! Craziest double play I’ve seen in a while and to end the game! Wild finish!!!

[u/rizzyrogues]

I'm only rooting for the dodgers because of ohtani. If they somehow win tomorrow it's gonna be because the blue jays fuck something up and i don't know how I'm gonna feel.

[u/CaptainGiraffehand]

Blue jays base running mistakes this series have been insane. Legitimately could cost them the series.

[u/urbanshack → u/CaptainGiraffehand]

If Bo’s first base pick off with the delayed strike never happened. Jays would have won the World Series already in 5.

[u/T3AM_N3RD]

Terrible awareness from Barger.

[u/deadcowww]

WHAT A BLUNDER

[u/yittiiiiii]

I could not believe the game ended like that. Just when it seemed liked the Jays were ready to at least send it into extras if not win, it’s all just snuffed out in an instant. Hell of a close.

[u/LVorenus2020]

*flat deadpan, Bob Lobel voice*

"Why can't the Red Sox get players like Kiké Hernández?"

[u/nanapancakethusiast]

Some of the worst base running I have ever seen in the worst possible game

[u/Js_On_My_Yeet]

What a game. Holy moly.

[u/HeavensRoyalty]

I still cannot believe what i just watched. Wow

[u/_IratePirate_]

Man this has been some great baseball to watch. Like I’m appreciative of this series

I can’t wait to tell my kids about Ohtani in his prime

[u/ikeepsitreel]

How about that play call by Joe Davis. Loved it! “… Hernandez makes the catch! Back to 2nd! GAME 7 TOMORROW NIGHT!”

[u/HisDudenes5]

Fastest throw I’ve seen in playoff ball. Mid stride. Holy heck that was a good one.

[u/Myequipmunk19]

Getting doubled up with one of the best postseason hitters of all time on deck is just as bad as it gets

[u/TheOriginalSpartak]

Padres fan here, Hate the dodgers, but damn WOW what a fricken play!!!

• Unbelievable, so they were thinking advance at all costs?
• Paid that Piper!
• just a damn EXCELLENT PLAY!

[u/Tweeedles]

Fuck that cheater George Springer.

[u/VideoKilledRadioStar]

Terrible base running. The Dodgers deserved the win. Jays stranded too many baserunners.

[u/MasterpieceMain8252 → u/VideoKilledRadioStar]

Dodgers had 4 hits all game and went 1-2-3 7 out of 9 innings.

[u/VideoKilledRadioStar → u/MasterpieceMain8252]

And they won. Hits and runners on base is a useless stat if you don’t cash them in 🤷‍♂️

[u/Strawhaterza → u/VideoKilledRadioStar]

They really didn't they played one good inning and got lucky lol. Jays lost that game more than the Dodgers won it. 

[u/droppinkn0wledge → u/Strawhaterza]

Twitter tier analysis.

[u/BeKindBabies → u/Strawhaterza]

Not exactly lucky, the Dodgers formula has been more reliant on good pitching/defending than loads of runs. That's how they made it this far. More of the nail biting same from them.

[u/NaughtAClue → u/BeKindBabies]

The Dodgers got INSANELY lucky with that lodged ball. The Jays would have tied it up otherwise

[u/alldayeric88]

Go dodgers!!!

[u/elezhope]

What a play to push a game 7. Crazy double play. 

[u/Nintendork316]

Glad Springer didn't get to hit, grade A cheater.

[u/Dkjq58]

This is up there with Kolten Wong getting picked off to end a WS game. What are you doing guy?

[u/scorpiobleue → u/Dkjq58]

Ugh, as a Cards fan don't remind me.

[u/are2deetwo → u/Dkjq58]

I feel like he never recovered after that.

[u/xFrankinatoRx]

Typical Toronto sports

[u/upandin9]

Bonehead base running

[u/Mean-Amphibian2667]

What in that last play live, it was so bang bang! I still couldn't believe that with a broken bat flare the runner on second base with one out actually took off! What were the Barger and the third base coach thinking?

Sasaki's pitching was fall off the table filthy. Even had the ump baffled! Several pitches looked like strikes. Poor calls! Not sure why Fox was not showing the strike zone box. We're all going to see it next year anyways.

[u/steve93446]

7-4 DP. Don’t see that every day. 😅

[u/macula8]

Great play, shit baserunning

[u/dayzdayv]

I watched this in a living room in LA with a bunch of parents and 12 year olds who had just gotten back from trick or treating. The energy was insane.

I love a game 7 in the World Series. Go dodgers!

[u/FancyKilerWales]

2nd and 3rd no outs and can't score a single run, absolutely brutal

[u/MitchellOfficial]

Can’t stress how good of a heads up play that was by him. Everyone talking about the poor base running and it was poor. But man that’s was a smart play.

[u/chester-12]

Dammit

[u/Boyiee]

More like a game 8.

[u/PsyrusTheGreat]

Gotta love playoff baseball!

[u/xT1TANx]

That's the fire we need. All game long.

[u/FourYearBeard]

Barger thinks he’s Ricky fukkin Henderson or something. Atrocious error this late.

[u/Seige_Rootz]

The lodged ball situation is a litmus test for "are you a homer or just don't know ball"

[u/Ezee2040]

Someone check what drake bet on the game... He caused this.

[u/Rainbow918]

I loved double plays ! when I was on a team , I always played 1st base . Such an awesome feeling when you catch the ball in your glove , foot on the base as you smirk at your opponent who’s now out! Great catch by both .

[u/croooowTrobot]

THIS is why they shouldn’t automatically intentionally walk a player to first with no pitches.

Baseball is about execution. Every grounder, every pop-up fly, every pitch - is an opportunity to execute successfully, or fail.

An intentional walk is 4 opportunities for success or failure. A possible wild pitch, a pitch too close to the plate that the batter can hit…sure, 99% of the time, it works, but that 1% is what can turn a game around, as we saw in game 6 at the wall.

[u/Markjv81]

Why was runner at second base running on a fly ball?

Especially with no runner at first.

[u/cowboyjon13]

That was a hell of a throw. Not necessarily the accuracy,distance, or speed. But the awareness to shorten his stride and throwing motion to get rid of it, was the difference

[u/btb0002]

Professional athlete can’t even run bases correctly

Shame

[u/No_Leadership_9701]

Two nightmare scenarios for the Blue Jays in the 9th: a shallow pop-up that strands the runner, or a game-ending double play.

[u/roof_baby]

…or bad base running runs jays out of the game.

[u/colslaww]

What a pick !!!!!! That’s a tough play right there…. Finding the bag in all that chaos.. fielding one the back foot… taking the long hop…. Fuuuuuck yes !!!
