That was very clearly out. I'm not sure what the point of challenging it was. That could come back to bite us in the bottom of the inning.

probably not smart but there was one earlier this season just like that and it was overturned

[Buster]

Why did they challenge that? 

Clear call

[Slade]

It's not a bad play, you have to go for it there. 

[Fearthedoc]

I don't blame them knowing Vladdy would get walked to bring up IKF lol

[Omar]

Since when does Teo hit the cutoff man? Bizarre

[Jimcanuck]

See there was no reason to take out Barger.

Bring Straw in for France there, he scores.

[ComeTogether]

Tough call. You take a risk they made the play.

Get 3 more outs and keep going.   Let's beat the Mariners Tigers  record.

Why send him when it obviously wasn't going to be close and Vladdy is up next?

Falefa up.. Vladdy iBB

[Masterbather]

I'm fine with the send. 

They had to make two perfect throws under pressure and they did.

[Jonn]

They would have intentionally walked Vladdy

I agree. But you would have loaded the bases forcing a young pitcher to execute. 

[Rimar]

Seriously,  JS shouldn't have  replaced Barger with Straw.  If he  didn't,  will have been Straw that will be running for France, and he's fast, so will have been safe.

[rydermike]

Wasted challenge. Now none left. You just gave ump's free rrigh to screw us

[HomeRunHomer]

Might have been able to score if they didn't waste the fast pinch runner on Barger.

[43211234]

Running into outs the last two innings. 

 

Didn't completely hate that send but what a brutal outcome

[Angrioter]

Dodgers playing good defense today 

[neverbeenhere]

ya, Straw might have scored

You gamble the run and force the defense to execute, and they did.

[Fighting_Yeti]

Oh great, Hoffman for another inning. I'm sure this will go well.

Still winnable, we can get to Kershaw. Gotta get through the next 3.

Would have been nice to have a real pinch runner in that situation...

Yeah they wasted Straw pinch running for Barger.

[416BlueJs]

Can’t send him with Vlad on deck

[ComeTogether]

2 more 

[hanton]

plus Teo had to field it cleanly lol  

[Alejandro Murphy]

Let’s go Jays !

Were not getting Kershaw for awhile lol. And he was probably being saved for Varsho just in case. They no reason to pull Sheehan

Yup it took a good bounce off the wall, a clean field by Teo, great throw, great relay throw by Edman to get the out.

I don't hate either of those running outs.

It feels like we're rapidly approaching the point where we get the lead and have no choice but to bring in Little for the save.
