While it doesn't help the fielders behind him make a play on the ball, it generally does let the viewer at home know that it's an out.  So there's that.  Why is Avila not playing? Is he hurt?  Does Laird always catch Sanchez?

Leyland has had lineups for lefty and righty pitchers down the stretch, against a lefty you're going to get Garcia/Laird and against a righty he goes with Berry/Avila, expect Alex to get a pinch hit opportunity if the chance arises.

My wife and I were at the game tonight. Not sure how the game came across on TV, but in the ballpark, it really felt like the whole thing turned on two A's defensive plays: Crisp's HR-stealing catch off Fielder, and then Cespedes' taking away a sure double from Fielder a few innings later. That's at least one run and maybe two, and they were easily the best-hit balls of the night for our boys.



It sucked. I won't go to game 4 or 5 to try to improve our chances.
