The next batter did not hit a fly ball
Though.. You can't really assume anything.

We had a guy on 3rd earlier In the game with 1 out and failed to make a productive out. A guy we had held up.. I think he would have scored even though it was Chinea running.. Had he scored the game woukd not have went to extras.. But we played it safe. Understandably but nothing to show.

People are insane if they don't think sending him was the right call. Especially for the home team with last at bat. It took not only a perfect throw, but a perfect catch and tag just to get him. Had the runner not held up or took such a bad turn rounding third, it's not even close. LSU's outfield is not known for assists so they decision makes even more sense.

If it were LSU in that situation and anyone but China or Scivique running I would have sent them.

It was NOT a dumb decision.

Lol.

The only thing close to "perfect" about that sequence was the tag. The CF almost two-hopped the ball on a throw he had a running headstart on and was almost into the infield. He also didn't even hit the catcher deadcenter.

All of that and the runner was still out.

That was FAR from absolutely the right call. I don't mind being aggressive at home, but that wasn't getting thrown out by Ichiro at 3rd, trying to stretch something. That was a throw 90% of high school outfielders could make with ease.
