During the Diamondbacks series opener against the Mets on Tuesday, emotions ran high within the New York announcing booth, and it was due to a rather unusual situation.
At the time, Arizona held a 4-3 lead over the Mets with two outs in the ninth inning.
With the tying runner poised at third base for New York and the potential winning run occupying first, Diamondbacks’ manager Torey Lovullo made a tactical decision.
