For one of the best players of all time, Alex Rodriguez really has a lot of bad ideas about baseball. I’ll never forget the time he talked about the importance of leading by an even number of runs instead of an odd number of runs.
What he said on Sunday night wasn’t as nonsensical as that, but it was close.
With two outs and two runners in scoring position in the bottom of the eighth, Chris Taylor came to the plate for the Dodgers, hoping to add a few insurance runs and help salvage a two-game split against the Astros.
