I hate a HBP with 2 strikes. 

Me too ...

**** happens  ...

[CRF]

Helluva play by CC!

[MGX]

Believe!!!

 

[rwilfong86]

NICE play for Correa!!!

[Jerr]

Got him!!!

 

[IndianaTwin]

Yeah, bench Correa because he’s not hitting…

[Aggies7]

What a play by CC. Polanco is brutal at third 

[Battle ur tail off]

That's why it doesn't matter if the guy strikes out every time. 

Game winning type play there.

[NotAboutWinning]

Yes, Correa!!!

[wsnydes]

That's heads up play by both the baserunner and Correa!

[ib uk]

That's why Correa can strike out every bat and still belongs on the roster

[RickOShea]

How in the world did Polanco know how to allow that ball to go through to Correa?

[nicksaviking]

Whew!!!! 

My lord, is this "curse" only relevant to Polanco???

[Azviking101]

Would not be shocked to see Farmer come in soon. Yikes

Yup. He has been awful there today and the ball keeps finding him! Royce on one leg might be better.

And Polanco has to get his second error there. Let’s get a couple more runs and upgrade the defense.

Stealing signs, I suppose.

I guess since he made that brutal error in the 2020 playoff game vs the Astros?

I have a feeling, Polanco goes yard before this game is over.

And get just enough glove on it to make it tempting for Bichette!

[nicksaviking]

Pretty sure Lewis on crutches could have not made that play too.

[Aggies7]

Polanco has been a playoff fielding liability. Playing with a tight you know what

Because he's smarter than a fifth grader  ...

Seriously that was a error but Correa bailed Polanco out ...

[NeverSeenATwinsPlayoffWin]

Fun fact: if Correa had signed with the Mets or Giants, he'd be on his couch today, eating some extra salty guasacaca 

[bighat]

Way to go Correa!

He's the last guy I wanna see making a play with the game on the line

[sampleSizeOfOne]

What i miss?

 

Apart from the entire season?

[IndianaTwin]

Just a hunch, but methinks Gausman may not get to face the third hitter in the lineup thrice. 

[NeverSeenATwinsPlayoffWin]

Wtf was that 0-0 call. That ball was lower than Gallo's batting average

[nicksaviking]

Ok, watching the replay, why wasn't Correa backing up Polanco on that play to begin with?

Bichette would have never tried for home had Correa been drifting over to backup Polanco to begin with. I guess I won't complain about the ol' rope-a-dope though.
