Yesterday, John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle asked, “Dodgers lose World Series their way; do Giants want to emulate them?” I appreciate how we all didn’t jump down his throat for saying something so silly, and it’s possible he didn’t write the headline, but he did go ahead and write this silliness:
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts was criticized for his decision-making in the five-game loss to the Red Sox, though the decisions were based largely on data supplied by Andrew Friedman’s front office.
Boston manager Alex Cora wasn’t flawless, but more of his decisions worked.
