There ya go, hit the ball in the air far enough, game is tied, can breathe a little easier.

The 3rd base steal on a shift reminds me that Ronny Cedeno once got thrown out at 2nd on a walk

yeah but no way can you pass up an out this early, let it go and could be a big inning

I like how right after the Mets got the tying run in on a foul ball catch-and-tag, the next out is a double play ball that would've scored nothing.

this makes the most sense. and i know you always take the out, especially early in the game. but one day i want a team to let it drop because they think their pitcher is a boss

I can see the road team maybe doing this late in a tie game where they actually might literally lose as a result of making the catch.

Home team conceding a tying run early in the game, not so much. The out's still worth it.

Letting it drop foul did cross my mind for a second too, when I saw where that ball was.

Give it time. It already had one player going absolutely mental on his manager in the dugout. And if the Dodgers keep leaving men on, the tension will boil over. The glorious, glorious tension.
