(33,315 posts)With two outs, Boche loaded the bases by intentionally walking a .221 hitter to set up a left on left with a rookie, also hitting .221. And that rookie was hit on the second pitch, scoring the runner from third.
Boche overthought it IMO. Blown win by the manager. But I'll take it, off course.

Both have maximized the abilities of their rosters brilliantly. Hands down, the most deserving this year.
