This is where it gets weird. Why not bunt him to third? Squeeze or SAC him home. If that isn't Baseball, what is?

 

Can't watch...cant stop watching

 

Still hedging your bets, huh?

Can you pinch run

Is this team capable of putting a bunt down? I honestly can't remember one happening.

Well, do the Twins run for Cruz here? Bunt? I’d so no on both.

Idk, Cruz is pretty darn slow

I’m guessing Hader is pretty tough to bunt on.

Because taking the bat out of Eddie's hands to trust Marwin and newbie Vargas isn't likely a good idea.

Can Eddie be Eddie again here?

Earlier in the game, Adrianza, a beauty.

You mean other than the squeeze plays in two of the last three games?

I'm going with newbie Vargas bringing home the win.

If the second baseman is playing way back, why not try to get one by Hader.

And for the record, the Brewers have sacrificed their DH, though the pitcher’s spot is nine hitters away. 

González hasn’t had a hit in about a week.

Win or lose, this feels gimmicky.

Isn’t the play here to walk Gonzalez to set up the double play for the rookie?

It is, but it’s midnight for some of us!

That’s....not helpful

Marwin has every right to be mad. What a trash call

Time to pull out the trash cans.

Better than betting your hedges. If you lose them, what will keep the rabbits out?

Should not have gotten tossed! But the call was BS

Well, apparently everyone but the home plate ump knew that Gonzalez should be walked!

Vargas had some good years hitting in the minors ... but not against Josh Hader, right?

Marwin isn't wrong, but you can't get tossed there. Also, if you're Rocco, you can't NOT get tossed there.

Gonna need some cardboard cutouts for our bench

Vargas hanging tough.

Good at bat for Vargas.

Well that was fun

I thought it was weird to make that defensive replacement

We get to start the bottom of the 9th with a runner on second, correct?

lololololol
