Ken AndersonHOST
He's not doing that.
Ken AndersonHOST
I thought Tommy Watkins was great at third.
Ken AndersonHOST
He m- I think he was the best third base coach.
Ken AndersonHOST
I thought, my wife said this, and Ryan, to Ryan, I thought base running got better all year.
Ken AndersonHOST
Erin, what'd you think about the coaches?
ErinGUEST
No, I 100% agree with you.
ErinGUEST
I was more than impressed with, uh, Hefner and, uh, Antoine Richar- Richardson and Tommy Watkins, all the new guys that came on this year.
ErinGUEST
Um, I think they really meshed well with the team and I am hoping that they stick around for a while because, uh, especially, uh, Jeremy, like the pitching this year, you know, he has to get some credit for that because it was just outstanding for the most part.
Matt ChernoffHOST
Then the Riley base hit.
Matt ChernoffHOST
What did you think of Watkins not sending Ozzie in that moment?
John KincadeHOST
He would've gotten ...
John KincadeHOST
He would've been out by, I, I think he would've been out by 15 feet.
Matt ChernoffHOST
And even if he wasn't, if you're watching where Tommy Watkins is, Ozzie's not around the bag when Marsh has already come up-
John KincadeHOST
Right
Matt ChernoffHOST
... with the ball.
Matt ChernoffHOST
You get the Ozzie single.
Matt ChernoffHOST
After an Olson K, you get the Duby infield hit, and then the Riley single, which we both agreed, it sounds great to say send Ozzie, but Tommy Watkins is watching-
John KincadeHOST
He would've been thrown at easy
Matt ChernoffHOST
...
John KincadeHOST
Then the Riley base hit.
John KincadeHOST
What did you think of Watkins not sending Ozzie in that moment? He would've gotten...

And even if he wasn't, if you're watching where Tommy Watkins is, Ozzie's not around the bag when Marsh has already come up- Right ... with the ball.
John KincadeHOST
And, and Marsh, I mean, look, it's a...
John KincadeHOST
You could say Marsh a little hobbled- Yes ... potentially.
Matt ChernoffHOST
After an Olsen K, you get the Doobie infield hit, and then the Riley single, which we both agreed.
Matt ChernoffHOST
It sounds great to say send Ozzie, but Tommy Watkins is watching.
Matt ChernoffHOST
He would have been thrown at easy.
Matt ChernoffHOST
Even if he's not, though, like, Watkins is looking at Ozzie not yet around third by the time Marcus gets the ball in.
Chris DiminoHOST
Like he would've been out easily.
Nick CelliniHOST
Well, Tommy Watkins is looking at it.
Nick CelliniHOST
Ozzie's not even around third yet.
Chris DiminoHOST
No.
John KincadeHOST
Then the Riley base hit.

Matt ChernoffHOST
Austin Riley comes through again with a single that loaded the bases.
Matt ChernoffHOST
You can make a case that Tommy Watkins, Braves' third base coach, could have sent the runner at that point.
Matt ChernoffHOST
And, and maybe he beats it out.
Matt ChernoffHOST
Ozzie Albies running, he's got enough speed.
Matt ChernoffHOST
Maybe not what he once was, but when Brandon Marsh came up with the ball in left field, Tommy Watkins is looking right at him.
Matt ChernoffHOST
Ozzie's not even around third.
Matt ChernoffHOST
But what you have to consider is Marsh looked like he was hobbled getting down the first baseline, so he wasn't getting to the ball quickly and had nothing on the throw.
Matt ChernoffHOST
You get the Ozzie single.
