Gonna chime in on this base running with IKF.

To several former players point, the philosophy with the “bases loaded” is don’t get doubled off on a line drive vs runners at “second and third” or “third” with infield in where it’s a contact play, good lead, aggressive secondary, you’re supposed to get doubled up on a line drive.

What’s the difference and why is the philosophy different? I think traditionally it is considered a much tougher play and higher chances of being safe with a great break when there IS NOT a force play at home.

Nice little write up by @Cran_Boy @baseballpro.
“St. Louis Cardinals chairman Bill DeWitt gave a radio interview on St. Louis station 590 The Fan that is pretty remarkable. I could write about a lot of what he said— about the potential for a 2020 season, for example, or how paying players less money didn’t increase profits (“Don’t think for a minute that the reduced payroll added money in the pockets of the owners because it didn’t”).
