what would ever lead Jim to believe that Gonzalez can get that ball in play? It was a terrible pitch to make contact with too. breaking ball way inside.
still, he should have fouled it off. but that doesn't mean it wasn't a terrible decision to call for the play in the first place.
You don't call a squeeze as the pitch is in the air! How in the world was Riggleman supposed to know the pitch would be awful? Not everyone has the ability of hindsight that you use to back up all of your arguments. Some people actually have to make decisions in real time.
