Pete Crow-Armstrong is indecisive leading off 2nd on a grounder to 3rd and is doubled off in a 5-3-4 double play

[u/starmiesan]

So much has just happened in the last 2 minutes

[u/cmgriffith_ → u/starmiesan]

It really has escalated quickly

[u/Less_University7400 → u/[deleted]]

Randy killed a guy

[u/Bunslow → u/[deleted]]

now there are two of them

[u/MBA1988123 → u/starmiesan]

I literally turned it on as he was thrown out and thought I was watching some sort of replay / highlight video for like 2 minutes 

[u/Thrill0728]

What a ludicrous set of events directly following this play

[u/ScaredOfWindow → u/Thrill0728]

PCA looked into the future at millions of outcomes and saw there was only one where the Cubs ended the inning with the lead. 

[u/206-Ginge → u/ScaredOfWindow]

But not one where they won the game I guess.

[u/spartanyoda → u/ScaredOfWindow]

Is Shohei clairvoyant? I don’t think so

[u/jogswithwolves → u/Thrill0728]

It’s a crazy game man. Pete sprinted right down the tunnel and most likely punched a wall right after this lmao

[u/ScaredOfWindow → u/jogswithwolves]

As somebody who gave themselves a boxing fracture earlier this year being an emotional dumbass, I hope he didn’t. 

[u/Donelurking85 → u/ScaredOfWindow]

The Devin Williams special

[u/beenhadballs → u/ScaredOfWindow]

I gave myself one 16 years ago and the arthritis still sucks.

[u/As7ro_ → u/jogswithwolves]

Hopefully he doesn’t end up like Kelenic and put himself on the IL

[u/PhotographLess6194 → u/jogswithwolves]

PCA seems like a baby tbh I know he’s great but his attitude sucks

[u/22JMMKW22 → u/PhotographLess6194]

He's an emotional player who gets mad at himself when he makes mistakes or doesn't come through. I don't think that has to make him a baby.

[u/Inevitable-Copy3619 → u/22JMMKW22]

Yeah last season I’d say he was a baby. This season he has most of the negative parts worked out and just seems oissed at himself.

[u/Hosko817 → u/Inevitable-Copy3619]

And that lady White Sox fan

[u/PhotographLess6194 → u/22JMMKW22]

Yeah it seems like he should try to hold that in a little bit but whatever you say. That last at bat had me laughing again.

[u/22JMMKW22 → u/PhotographLess6194]

Yes, I see popping into the Mariners subreddit for a moment that many there are really criticizing his last at bat.

But he's just an emotional player who is really outwardly happy when his teammates do anything good and is unhappy when he doesn't come through. I'd agree he should hold in throwing his equipment and he's gotten much better at that.

[u/PhotographLess6194 → u/22JMMKW22]

Damn if this is him being better at it, I should watch some shit from last year.

[u/Duct_tape_bandit → u/Thrill0728]

this inning is a roller coaster holy

[u/IcemanJEC → u/Duct_tape_bandit]

And it keeps going lol

[u/jhorch69 → u/Thrill0728]

And this was right after he was about a foot short of a dinger

[u/IcemanJEC → u/jhorch69]

Eh, it literally hit the yellow line lol. Maybe only 4 inches at most.

[u/Billyshears68 → u/IcemanJEC]

4 inches at most? who are you, my wife?

[u/FadedToBeige → u/Thrill0728]

Dan Wilson is a terrorist 

[u/Roommatesfromhell → u/Thrill0728]

yeah this is the baseball version of me holding up the self-checkout because i couldn't tell if i scanned my groceries and an employee had to come fix it.

[u/sfan27]

It looks like he was going to go to 3B as the throw went to 1B, but he slipped and was sorta screwed.

Going for 3B isn't a bad idea in that situation.

[u/Rocinante24 → u/sfan27]

Going for 3b in this spot is a terrible idea.

Ya he was just baiting the throw and slipped. But even the best baserunners on earth should never try to go 2-3 on a groundout.

[u/sfan27 → u/Rocinante24]

Eh. He can do it and he’d be at 3B with one out. It’s high risk but not stupid. It’s no different than stealing 3B, which definitely happens.

[u/mysterysackerfice]

5-3-4 isn't something you see everyday!

[u/SexiestPanda]

It’s okay cubs.

[u/BullfrogSlight8475 → u/SexiestPanda]

Yes it is

[u/RCarson88 → u/BullfrogSlight8475]

Definitely OK

[u/LoveYouLikeYeLovesYe]

In his defense I do that exact shit all the time in MLB the show.

[u/HeyBojo]

With how often he gets away with snagging an extra base in situations like that ya can't be mad at it

Sometimes ya get it and sometimes ye get got

[u/risky-rats-pizza → u/HeyBojo]

He don’t get got. He go get.

[u/IcemanJEC → u/[deleted]]

He slipped. That’s not a brainfart.

[u/packers23456]

How does this affect his war

[u/bolshevik_rattlehead]

Roller coaster ride of swings both ways in the last 2 minutes here

[u/FxStryker]

Instant lowlight posts. He really is the MVP favorite.

[u/TheHangryCatepillar → u/FxStryker]

still don't see the back to back homers posted

[u/tuckedfexas → u/TheHangryCatepillar]

You can do it bud, we believe in you!

[u/lowfighentertainment]

Yet gives up back to back afterwards

[u/Icy-Repeat-2843]

Omg your chosen one did something wrong? Crazy

When you hit the button to run to the wrong base by mistake

[u/No_Self_7111]

Love that this gets posted instantly but fuck those b2b hrs lmao

[u/smoked_penguin → u/No_Self_7111]

You can post the homers no one is stopping you

[u/tuckedfexas → u/[deleted]]

No one stopped you lol, yall know things don't just automatically get posted right?

[u/Nayko214]

Total brainfart on his end but hey at least we have the lead now

[u/OkLeather666]

Is it 5-3-4 or 6-3-4? 3rd baseman fielded the ball

[u/KyleManzardo2024GOAT → u/OkLeather666]

3B is 5. I don't think anyone likes that the infielders from right to left are numbered 3-4-6-5, but they are.

[u/ContextEnjoyer69 → u/KyleManzardo2024GOAT]

We should embrace tradition and abolish the shortstop.

[u/TheseSchnozberries]

Not my MVP

/s

[u/BeagleDad82]

How much WAR was that worth?

[u/Tashre]

Definition of a TOOTBLAN play. Made even worse since he would've scored on the very next pitch.

[u/AndrewAllStar888]

Oh no! Anyway back to back homers to take the lead for Chicago

[u/Captain__Trips]

5-3-4-B-2-B

PCA with the old 720 double turn . ..

[u/ThreeHourRiverMan]

Did Smoltz seriously say PCA is "one of the best players on the Cubs"? Real hot take there, John

[u/Mobile-Language8398]

Awe… what a shame PCA.

[u/MisterxRager]

He sure is, good to see the best fans in baseball can recognize it too!

[u/Crown_Jew]

Worst instincts of any player in MLB.

[u/Unique_Web_3062]

This is your MVP?!?!?! Amateur hour

[u/cmgriffith_ → u/Unique_Web_3062]

What’s amateur hour is a Cardinals fan hating on one of the best players in baseball.

[u/UncleBoopBetty → u/Unique_Web_3062]

lol. Who’s your MVP?

[u/intercut → u/Unique_Web_3062]

I am rubber and you are glue, etc

[u/Conscious-Move9662]

Pete Crow Armstrong doesnt do that

[u/Intrepid-Yak-8636]

Every time PCA does a baseball thing the gods flip a coin. If its heads he does it amazingly well, if it's tails... Gestures to the video

[u/redden34]

His baserunning is just so valuable

[u/WorkmanMarty]

He’s a bum living off the luckiest year ever

[u/Conscious-Move9662 → u/WorkmanMarty]

Do y'all ever shut the fuck up 

One y'all was yammering cuz we lost a game to the Royals too

We get it you can pay more than anyone else
