Okay, 2014 can not come fast enough. The "DJ HERO" plays of the game segment was terrible. the point of highlights of the game is to show the highlights. It is difficult to see the highlights when they are shown in off colors and an "artistic" fashion.
Tim McCarver once again fails to see a situation from someone else's point of view. The Yankees had Runners on first and second and nobody out and they were ahead by only on run. Derek Jeter tried to bunt the runners over to have a situation of runners at second and third with one out. Well, Jeter was unsuccessful and struck out bunting the third strike foul.
McCarver was blasting the decision (which he believes was Jeter's choice) to bunt saying Jeter was too good of a hitter to give up as an out. Well my thought is that with no outs in a tight game you should always move the runners over with a bunt to set up a runner on third, less than two outs and more importantly squash the double play threat.
But I will agree with McCarver on one thing (I know it's rare), the Phillies should have sent the runners in the top of the 8th to avoid the double play they hit into. A missed opportunity.
Phills and Yankees tied at one. So far a great series.
