the rays were also capable of scoring more it was a putrid abysmal moronic decision
2020 was 60 games. I am sure many things that didn’t happen in the regular season, happened in the post season. For instance, the Indians never gave up more than 11 runs in a game in 2020 regular season, then did it in their first post season game.
I do think the Dodgers were likely to score, but it was not a certainty, and definitely not something that should drive your managerial decisions.

batting with a 1-0 lead is not the same as batting trailing 2-1 in an elimination game
But you are leaving out points that matter. Snell had been injured and didn't pitch 6 innings all season. His velocity was diminishing already. Betts has historically hit lefties very well.
The fact that it was the 6th game of the WS and that he is an excellent starting pitcher is not analytics. It's generally what gets managers in trouble.

Maybe I suffer from paying attention, but the Rays were at the their most effective at the plate in this series when they were battling back from behind against the Dodgers' bullpen. However in Game 6 they didn't pile on when they had the lead or rally when they fell behind. They had multiple innings in both those scenarios. They whiffed 16 times and went home quietly.
I'm not a system player. I am a system.
yes, keep defending this terrible decision just to try to be right on a message board. it's hilarious.
