    Taking offered the best chance of scoring (and scoring a lot). Ervin can't hit righties.

    was Dietrich positioned right backing up the relay?

    Ervin’s throw was close to as bad as Peraza in LF the other day....but also Dietrich was backing up but nowhere near in line with the throw.

    Some horrible horrible baseball being played

    Are upside-down sunglasses the latest affectation?

    Green light fine but you don’t swing at that pitch

    Ervin's arm is ridiculously bad.

    Ervin doesn't have a very accurate arm does he

    Then I would submit you try to take advantage of having men on base. Rather than wasting those baserunners to clear the pitcher’s spot. It’s a very defensive way to play baseball.

    Not that Ervin should swing at ball four, but the take sign would be incorrect in that spot IMO.

    Dietrich's white out under the eyes might have been a factor.

    I’m just not at all impressed with Bauer.

    ok, yeah I agree that when I say green light, I am talking about the typical 3-0 fastball down the middle....I think Ervin swinging at a pitch straight down the middle of the plate has much higher chances to score the run that Bauer.
