No one is cheering against Sanchez. We're pointing out that he wasn't sharp in that inning and was very lucky to get out of it with only one run given up, the botched DP not withstanding.
He slid to the side of the bag with his arms up and even made contact with Sogard. If that's not an illegal slide by the new rules then I don't know what the f*** is.
This is probably the best I've seen out of Sanchez this season by a long shot. He's still had his couple of walks and times where the command falls off a cliff but the consistency of his fastball, specially up in the zone, and his breaking ball has been miles ahead every other start of his.
Look at his pitcher usage, when he makes changes, who he pinch hits and pinch runs for. The bunting is done by traditionally poor hitters. Maybe they have data that supports these decisions, has anyone actually considered that?
