That depends, is Kepler the only major league ball player on this little league team?

Setting up for Kepler to pull a grounder for the final out.

You get no more credit for predicting this than for predicting the sun will rise tomorrow morning.

he ran out of the box like he thought it was going to be caught. he was giving up on it. run hard until the out is made. little league baseball.

98/100 times that ball is caught or fielded on one bounce for a single though

That shouldn’t matter, they should run hard always, even on walks 

[RickOShea]

With as big of a strike zone they use in little league, I think 401K hits about the same.

yes but he ran out of the box slowly, why not get to first more quickly and then see what happens? just a thought. if i was making 35M i may run harder

I think you mean the second baseman. Q few of those grounders will get to him quickly on that LL field.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

This time they stranded a runner on first. That's all the bases stranded.

If I was making 35m I just might take the summer off and relax. ?

Gordon had to be ordered not to steal , or if thrown out we would of got to bat Leon leading off next inning,  How can a team compete like that ?? Nothing against Sandy,- Sad to see

Does that mean if they go 1-2-3 next inning they’ll have stranded for the cycle?
