This base running is absolutely ridiculous. Is McEwing just a mute over there?

30/30 speed there for you ugh.

Terrible baserunning and terrible defense. With competent baserunning and defense, this is a 1-1 ballgame, man on 2nd, no outs. As it stands, 2-0 Oakland.

Well, you don't put yourself in contention for worst base running team in history by playing the game correctly.

I see our stellar base running continues. Man this is a stupid decision team

That has nothing to do with speed. Poor base running all together. After you freeze to see if it falls there is no way you are getting home unless the ball is bobbled

Hawk said he ran through the stop sign.

Especially with that cannon in RF

Dumbest team ever. Certainly the worst at baserunning I've ever seen. Comeback killer.

 

s*** has to change.

 

Micah johnson really hurt this team, yeah right they are so bad his play didn't matter

Nice hustle Alexei...not

Looked like Avi's head was down sprinting while McEwing had his arms in the air about 15 feet down the line. I couldn't tell if he was yelling or not but you have to be yelling stop or stay or something. It cost us 2 runs

Tyler with the 2 out hit here

He was on pace to shatter records for the worst defensive season by a 2nd baseman ever. I know you are his biggest fan, but he was really bad.

Good teams don't screw that stuff up.

Tyler sucks. Can't wait to see if we can find a new catcher.

I wouldn't fault Ventura for benching Avi after that play. Time someone sets an example for these miscues.

Just awful

Should be tied.

 

Avi got a terrible read and then blew through McEwing's stop sign.

 

 

Conor just isn't a 3rd baseman. Not really sure what you can do with him, but he's simply awful at 3rd.

Lawn ornament at 3rd base.

The Manager should bear some responsibility for managing the dumbest team in 125 years of baseball history, should he not?

DJ's excuse is most other teams are bad at this too these days.

 

That the good teams make fewer mistakes (see Twins of 2001-2010 or Cardinals, albeit not today) and let their opponents beat themselves.

 

Great analysis, lol. He's watched it game after game for 350+ games now.

I hate Oakland. Those damn drums or whatever they are playing in the stands is beyond annoying. Not sure how anyone gets through a whole game listening to that
