Good move to run Heyward for Soler? I could see it with less than two outs and a tag up situation, but why take Soler's bat out of the lineup just when he's getting hot?

George Brett had probably the greatest quote I ever heard from a baseball player. He was asked if he'd like for his career to end on a grand slam in the World Series and he said "No. I'd like for it to end on a ground ball down the first base line and me running as hard as I possibly can". I wish most players would leave home plate running for their lives every time.

We still have Schwarber and the top of the lineup. They never give up

I wonder if that little trot and smile is the last we see of Soler for a while. How pissed is Maddon right there?

Soler just squandered the greatest opportunity of his life by being lazy.

Hot? His triple was absolute garbage.

Soler still finds way to screw up. Good base running. Would that have been an inside the park if he runs hard?

cuz he just trotted to first on a crazy fly ball up into the wind. That was inexcusable, I believe he just got sat the **** down.
