I'm sure everyone noted that Sheets stayed in the game in the 9th for defensive purposes and Vaughn came out.

Vaughn made the last out in the 7th so why wouldn’t you? Less of a chance of needing to see Leury bat when he’s not due up for 9 spots.

All true.  But still, Vaughn came out and Sheets went to RF.  That earlier mis-play by Vaughn hurt him.

Who were they gonna put out there, Leury is on one leg, Eloy was replaced by Engel, Robert is being held out, pollock was already in.  They didn’t have many options

This. There's not a huge difference between Sheets and Vaughn in RF, so you put Leury in the spot where's he less likely to have to hit and that was Vaughn's spot.
