i fucking hate prince fielder so much


EDIT: You know what, that's not his fault.  You go on a groundball and get the run.  Victor absolutely cannot get tagged out there.

They were giving up the run in favor of the DP.  Prince was supposed to go.  It was the perfect grounder for Boston.  Fielder had to stop because he was toast if he didn't.  In fact, he was able to hold up long enough for Peralta to get to second.

Prince has to run regardless of the consequences. Vmart has to run regardless of the consequences. By the book, there is absolutely no holding up by those baserunners in that situation. You make the d choose whether they want the DP or to stop the run and the offense comes out ahead/even in either situation.
