The point is we have to force them to make a play. We were producing no offense up to that point, and we produced zero offense after that. We knew they had Papelbon as their ace in the hole. FOley had to know that we weren’t going to have many opportunities left.

Bays throw was way off, but that may be due to the bluff. I give it a 50/50 shot at scoring right there. A 50/50 shot right there is probably better odds than someone driving him in.

Either way I’d rather lose playing aggressive than lose playing passive. Force them to beat you.

From my view in 301, I say he would have been out easily assuming the throw was on-line. Too risky…
