Does Price NOT understand that the field umpires dont make the call on reviews. Also, I hate Brian Price.

 

Maybe he was asking what the umpires who did review it saw or didn't see.

pinch running for a run that doesnt matter?

 

avoid DP type of move

 

How does the runner at first avoid a DP? I would think in a tie game like this having an extra pinch hitter and keeping Shaw's bat in the game are much better options

avoid DP type of move. Faster runner less likely to hit into the DP.

 

Still pretty baffling to me. Typical ground ball the runner at 1st is going to be thrown out no matter who it is. It's more about the speed of the batter staying out of it.

 

Strange strategy to me. Not sure it is worth removing Shaw from the game.

Most likely way is for Perez to get to second to break up throw to first. I would have rather not PR too. Counsell gets paid to manage though.

I get there is like 1 possible ground ball that would take just long enough that Perez would get there to break it up but Shaw wouldn't, but if that is the reasoning CC should just go home for the night

I'm guessing Shaw's leg isn't feeling too great from those foul balls (and further evidenced by the guard he was wearing during his at bat) and they just didn't want him running on it right now.
