- I know that's the idea, but if you give it some critical thought, you see that walking him intentionally brings the *winning* run to the plate. - musubiafraidofthingsthatgobumpinthenight Oct 23, 11:37 5
  - if you let A-Rod tie it up that late (again) with a dinger, you're gonna lose anyway -- nm - big time shamu Oct 23, 11:38 4
    - If he hits a dinger (which, even for a great hitter like ARod is not a high probability), you still face the next batter. (nm) - musubiafraidofthingsthatgobumpinthenight Oct 23, 11:47 3
      - so the winning run still comes to the plate -- nm - big time shamu Oct 23, 11:49 2

        See the part where it's unlikely he hits a dinger? He's still more likely to make an out. (nm) - musubiveryafraidofthingsthatgobumpinthenight Oct 23, 11:51

  - Too late! (nm) -- (link) - David Oct 23, 11:35 [Backboard] 2
    - You know all those silly people who hung the faulty "choker" label on ARod because of a small sample size? You're doing the same thing. (nm) - musubiafraidofthingsthatgobumpinthenight Oct 23, 11:43 1
      - You choked last night. Accept it and move on. - David Oct 23, 11:52
