I did not understand trying to steal 2nd with the tying run at the plate, nor trying to score the guy on the double when they could've had 2nd and 3rd with two outs.
IMO they played scared and desperate, when in reality they were the home team playing in their own ball park.

That style can win you games.. but it can also lose you games.

I think they should've waited until it was 2-2 to steal. They had just picked about four times with a 1-2 count, so they had a pitch to burn on a pitchout. Sending Adams was the right call. He runs very well and the odds of getting another 2 out hit are against you.

They played the same way they had played all year.

No. They needed a ground ball, and with Harry's breaking ball you have a good shot at getting one. Wilson got touched up the day before and Bazar has some control issues.

You send the guy with two outs. That isn't playing aggressive, that is percentage baseball.

it took a near perfect relay to get the out at home, and he still almost got in there... sending him with 2 outs was the righ tplay, imo.

it was the right call by the 3rd base coach. 9 times out of 10 he will score. Was a perfect strike to the plate that got him. Plus if the runner had slid feet first would have probably been safe. The runners legs would have move the catchers leg out of the way. You have to take a chance now an then to win. Plus Team Louisiana wasn't hitting very well. good call
