You can't risk getting final out at home in final game of the World Series. Don't think he would have made it anyways.

Congratulations to the Giants. Admittedly I was pulling for KC since they never win it, but I really didn't have a dog in the fight. Great game. Enjoy that dynasty status!

Rickey Henderson in his prime maybe...maybe gets out by only 2 feet


That Dude would have been out by 15 feet and a permanent goat forever

He almost certainly heeded whatever his 3B coach told him to do. I think it was the right call not to go for home there.

I thought the one who slid into 1st should have been safe. I think he tied the throw. I didn't see what the commentators saw and I'm no expert.

For that triple, I think it would have been too much of a gamble in a situation that would have cost them the game. It was too little of a chance to go for it.

If he'd been running full speed out of the box, maybe. But as it was he would have been out by several feet. As the front OFer (idk his name) got the relay he hadn't even touched 3rd.

I thought the same thing. Buy there was a super slo-mo shot where it was obvious he was out. That's not the shot they were showing when they were talking about how obvious it was he was out though.

Perez is the goat. Shoulda walked if he was any sort of normal baseball player.


Then Willingham pinch hits. And we all know that woulda been a homer.

He's up there hacking. I was surprised he got anything below his eyes. I don't thinh anything was close to the zone.

Pretty much, the hesitation at 2nd from what i saw live, was what really screwed him, i still thought if he was hustling he woulda made it.
