Given it was Ortiz, you have to consider the situation 1 out, men at 2nd & 3rd, 1st base open, the way Ortiz is killing it this year and with his lack of pace he doesn't beat out many double plays AS WE SAW!!
To me it was a no brainer. A double play ends the inning!
As I said I quite like Gibby but that was a shocker of a non decision.
