Just now, O's84 said:

I get the strategy, but it always worries me to put an extra baserunner.

Yeah, starting the inning with a man on 2nd, we have a good chance of scoring 1 run.   But now a double might score 2 and that would make our job a lot tougher in the bottom of the 10th.

[scOtt]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Beysbol]

Nice job, Scott!!

[Aristotelian]

Hyde's move pays off. Nice job by Scott. 

[Moshagge3]

I guess strike one to Ford was a make-up call?

[O's84]

Good job Scott.  And thank you umpire for that ridiculously called strike.

[SteveA]

OK, I like our chances.   Wonder if Chapman pitches another inning.

Wonder how good a bunter Valaika is.

[Philip]

Well, there’s two outs, at least according to my feed, so hopefully we got the good guy today and can close the game out in the bottom half of the inning

[Moshagge3]

You always like to earn it, but a walkoff Gleyber error would be pretty great.

[scOtt]

Good Sac!

[SteveA]

Come on Cedric!!!!!!!!!!

[SteveA]

They could walk Cedric to set up the DP.

But Hays is fast and a tough guy to double up, so it's hard to imagine they would play at DP depth  and risk losing the game by failing to turn one.

Therefore, they probably won't walk Cedric.

[Aristotelian]

Surprised they dont walk him to set up the double play. 

[O's84]

Orioles win!!! Take that Yanks!

[SteveA]

YES!
