...Did it look on TV, by the way,  that the foul tip in the ninth was dropped on purpose because the player knew Bixler could have tagged up and scored on the play?


If you are talking about the Hairston foul pop-up that Kennedy missed, no AK was complete lost trying to catch it.

F. P. pointed out that Bixler did tag up, and would have tried to steal home, if Kennedy had caught the foul ball.  EdStroud is correct, Kennedy just was running in circles and dropped it.  But he was so deep that Bixler would have scored, if he did catch it.
