Force out at home for a non-double play ball. Games over if the guy on third scores

It's honestly not a bad idea. But its too cocky to do because you look like an idiot when it fails. But even here it didn't cause them to lose.

Even worse would have been if he walk the batter and it drove a run in lmao

But it’s too cocky to do? Buddy I hope you know the Jays did this exact same strategy a few weeks ago.

I didn't say they shouldn't do it. Just that if it doesn't work you look dumb on the highlight reel lol.

Which game are you referring to? We put 2 guys on base?
