In the top of the 6th you'll change your mind again I hadn't seen the replay of Robert tagging up yet. Robert did the right thing, Leury was brain dead.

Against a slightly faster RFer...almost anyone, basically...he's dead to rights and doubled off first quite easily. Imagine that turning into a runner on third and two outs.

It wasn't Luis' fault, that Leury has no idea how to check the guy in front of him on the bases. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 (edited) 11 minutes ago, Look at Ray Ray Run said: because he should be tagging up... what are you guys talking about. Robert did exactly what he should do there. Don't think so. As a runner at second you have to read the flight of the ball and know who the fielder is. Instead he had his back to the wall and was looking over his shoulder. Leury did that and Robert did not. Robert should easily score on that ball once it goes off the wall. He's already in scoring position at 2nd base with great speed. He could've walked home if he went even a quarter of the way to third. Obviously there is some blame on Leury too because he had to stop once he saw Robert still there.

Yeah it was pretty damn catchable. Just a lumbering DH in RF like we’re used to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 We play a DH in RF and he ends up gifting the Guardians 2 runs. The Guardians play a DH in RF and we end up gifting them an out cause we don't know how to run the bases. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowand44 Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 One of those days/series when even when we hit the ball hard it's an out. 114 mph exit velocity into a line out. Ouch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go halfway there's almost no way to then tag up and get to third if it's caught. You can blame Robert for underestimating how bad Reyes is in RF, I guess?
