Expand I dont think the force at first is ever removed with 2 outs, even if additional outs are made. Ie we could have seen the legendary fourth out rule apply thats never occurred in MLB.

But try to argue how that’s not load management Expand Soreness bad enough to keep you out of two games is an injury. If general soreness kept a player out they'd never play. Just because the injury isn't bad enough to keep him out a week doesn't mean it's not an issue. Load management would be keeping a healthy player out who is fine to play.

There was a situation a couple of against Minnesota when Abreu tagged the bag, getting that runner, then threw to second to get the non=force double play. Stone and Benetti were saying that if Donalson had hustled home instead of dogging it the run would've counted. I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
