With the bases loaded you can’t run a safety squeeze. The runners must go.


Sure you can. Safety squeeze just waits until the runner see the bunt down.

That was big league coaching and executed to perfection.

Used to be. They don’t play actual baseball in the big leagues anymore. It’s all about that 3 true outcomes BS

But he doesn’t read the play to make sure he can reach home.

It’s not a suicide, it’s not a true safety squeeze in that you don’t read the bunt to see if you could safely get in, but you go on contact.

Where do we know that we scored two? Did Blair say it on the radio? That tweet in the OP sure didn’t mention two runs scoring. Just because Crews rounded third hard doesn’t mean he didn’t end up stopping

After the play the graphic only showed a runner on 2nd when it would’ve been 2nd and 3rd if he hadn’t scored. They also put the 16th & 17th run up on the scoreboard after the squeeze. After Tre’s hit the score only went up by 1 run

Franques and Blair got it very quick. I was in my car and heard them talk about it right away.

I would love to see a wide angled video kept throughout the entire play to watch it.
