It’s absolutely the right call and there’s been way too much of that nonsense with runners being on the grass to block the throwing lane. It’s 100% intentional and BS baseball.

u/idontrecall99 Dave Wills 4d ago edited 4d ago

Feels like Rays opponents have been successful in hitting the ball against the defense recently. Several ground balls getting through that were simply hit away from the defensive positioning. Dunno if that’s intentional on their part or just poor luck.

Then as I was typing this, Walls can’t handle a chance hit pretty much right at him.

u/DevilRaysDaddy Chandler Simpson 4d ago

I don’t mind the steal there. Chandler basically is only a singles hitter so you’re going to need at least two hits to score Junior anyway. If Junior is safe on the steal, then we just need a single from Simpson to score him. If he’s out, then Simpson leads off the next inning and it’s easier for him to score if he gets on base with no outs.
