re: Will someone who was at the game explain how when 3-3 on the slap back, how did

if he gets thrown out at the plate, as long as fraley moves to 3rd base on the play, the only difference is you now have runners on 1st and 3rd and 1 out, instead of 2nd and 3rd and 1 out.

You're insinuating he should have gone home immediately, and if he does, he gets hosed from the pitcher. Fraley was running from 1st base with a busted up knee. He isn't getting to third on a play from the pitcher to the catcher unless it is a run down.

The only way to guarantee a runner at 3rd with one out is for Duplantis to freeze. It just worked out shitty because the CC pitcher just tossed it to first without thinking much.
