Game Thread: Wild Card Game 2

Rizz's call at the end of the game. Note that he jots down the final out on his scoresheet.

I'm glad he got to call it after such a long time.

Goldsmith in that video is the best... He's visibly stressed out when it starts and I think holding back tears by the end

That was my exact reaction before and after the final out...

It's not the shortstops job to call him off. It's his job.

Yeah, that's what I was getting at. If he called the ball, then that mishap is on Bichette, if he didn't call him off, then he has to get out of the way. Either way, I am not sure that he is in position to catch it off the bounce unless he immediately backed off and watched Bichette go after it.

I was speaking of his inability to stay healthy and getting hurt every year, probably by doing stupid things like not communicating with his infielders.

He got hit by a guy's arm, was one of the weakest collisions in baseball history and they practically had to bring out the stretcher for him.

Averaging 96 games per year the last 4 seasons. Wuss.

That I get. He acted like he had been shot in the hand after getting hit in game one too!

I’m guessing Toronto’s medical staff has been following the NFL and the whole Tua T. debacle, hence the stretcher. Just my opinion…
