[QUOTE="gtbeak, post: 1008569, member: 3164"] It was bad baserunning. It was a chopper where the first bounce was on the dirt around home plate, so no reason to freeze for fear of a caught line drive. It was hit maybe a few steps to the shortstop's right, but there was no concern with the 3B fielding it. However, the runner's first step on initial contact was back to the 3rd base bag, then he froze, and then when the SS fielded it he took another step or two towards the bag. The SS never hesitated about going for the DP at 2nd, and by the time the runner was through going back to the 3rd base bag he didn't have a clear shot at scoring, so he held. He immediately put his hands over his head, he knew right away he had messed up. As was stated in the chatroom, he should have been instructed to go on contact, with the worst case scenario being 1st and 2nd with 1 out. But that would take a good play by the infielder and him scoring was much more likely. [/QUOTE]
