He had to hold up in case Pham caught it... didn't want to repeat Cedric's mistake from yesterday.

You are already in scoring position.  You have to go as far as you can in case he drops it.  Who cares if you have to go back to second and not advance to 3rd?  You’re already in scoring position 2 outs and you’re then going on contact.  Horrible base running.

Even considering that Mateo had to make wait to see whether Pham caught the ball, he still should have been halfway to third (no point tagging up in that situation) and should have still scored easily once it became clear that Pham had not caught the ball.  Was Mateo really tagging up?  What the hell is going on?

Cedric wasn't running from 3rd in case he had to tag up. Should Mateo have stayed 3 feet away from him?

I remember when GRod first came up he would completely lose control once he got angry. Hope he can calm down. Surprised Adley’s not visiting him or coming out to call the play on the field to give him a breather.
