Absolutely should have laid out for it. However, miss or catch the game was lost. Even if he catches it on a dive though smith likely would have tagged and scored.
Didn’t really matter if he dove and caught it the runner at third would have still went scored the winning run regardless. Wouldn’t have been enough time after the catch to get up and make a throw.
ngl during the swing i was mad that he expanded the zone with risp again but watching it back that was a nasty change. how the hell did he make good contact there?!
same with andy.. how can he hit that inside ball after lunging over the plate to foul of pitches over a foot outside. the consistent young talent is so impressive for this org
Everything is better when the dodgers win. The air is clean, my wife looks prettier, my taxes look low, my hemorroids go dormant, and i look more handsome!!!
Hahaha, love the OW when Shohei's Head of Marble hit the 1st Base Coach's - and that grin by Pages - he knew what the pitcher was going to do and he's like "oh, okayyyy"
Well, a team still has to do something with an extra chance. Freddy dropped a foul popup for an error, giving that Brave another chance. It didn’t lead to a run. Pages still had to actually put the ball in play. He did. The Dodgers won.
@@cyrusvirus6928he could’ve slid and made the catch, Will Smith was not waiting to tag, meaning if caught he would’ve had to go back to 3rd base to tag up.
The tv camera compresses the depth of field from that angle. The CF was not close enough to make a diving catch. He played the odds that the runner was tagging up as they would about 99% of the time and then he could throw him out (easily) from that shallow. The runner, though, made his own smart play recognizing he could not tag from the shallow if the ball was caught. So he went 3rd of the way and stopped to see what transpired. If it was caught, he was close enough to return to 3rd and hope the next batter could get a 2 out hit. Once he recognized it wasn’t going to get caught, he ran home leaving the fielder no chance to throw him out. You can see that Smith started home before the ball hit the grass…which means he, without a compressed tv view, recognized the CF could not get to the ball in the air. The bigger mistake that was made is the Braves, with only one out and the winning run on third didn’t pull their outfield in a bit more shallow. They were too deep for the situation and were protecting against balls hit deep. That is worthless as the runner will tag and score. Play up specifically to protect against bloops and line drives. You will normally still have a chance to make a play at the plate on those type hits. By playing modestly deep, they lost the ability to protect against the bloop.
@@ajalvarez3111 Compressed depth or not it's where the ball landed 4:11 which took the CF exactly one step to reach it which means he was very close, had he not eased up might have reached it. Just seemed like a lack luster effort with the game on the line.
Time the CF went back to the minors to work on his hustle. That was a very piss poor effort on his part. I'm just wondering why he pulled up short????? I understand they're playing under the lights but that didn't look like the lights were affecting him at all. It looks like he just gave up on the play.
Doesn’t really matter it’s not the postseason and that’s where we get the terrible calls from the umpires year after year after year goes all the way back to Bumgardner and Kershaw
Everytime ohtani slumps hitting, the pitching becomes very simpler and location is fixed (this time same velocity of pitching and outside only, nothing going to be in low or high, though pitching freeman to all corners). all home runs this year are same. ops with or without base runners is also so different. is ohtani really a good baseball player?
after dive for the ball, will unable to have enough time to get up and pass back to home to tag out the runner. ( dive may have chance cause injury, not worth it )
You and 23 upvoters are living in clown world. The camera compresses the the picture from the head on angle. The CF was not nearly as close to the ball as you think it was. You guys also missed two really heads up baseball plays right in front of your face made by the CF and the runner on 3rd on that play. Doubt you’ll ever figure it out. Baseball doesn’t need better players. Baseball needs more educated fans.
yes pages hit the game winner BUT he needs to have more discipline in his at bat. the moment got too big for him. that is why he keeps swingning pitches way out of strike zone. he just got lucky tonight that those balls he hit were fouls.
Pages is here to stay. Dude can hit and he will end CT3 career. CT3 cannot hit and even though he can play different positions, hes a liability at the plate. Lux is starting to hit but Outman needs to go to the minors
What an ignorant comment. The check swing is, by far, the hardest call in baseball to make. To make matters worse for the umps, THERE IS NO DEFINITIVE DESCRIPTION IN THE RULES OF WHAT ENTAILS A CHECK SWING STRIKE. It’s really left up to the judgement of each umpire if they saw a swinging strike. There is no “his bat crossed the plate” or “he broke his wrists” or any of that crap. Read the rule yourself. It’s so hard to make the right call, especially for the home plate ump, that umpires REGULARLY turn to each other for help on the call. That rarely happens for any other call. In this instance, the home plate ump conferred with the 1st base ump at the catcher’s request because he wasn’t sure (if the batter was left handed the home plate ump would check with the 3B ump). At that point the responsibility for the call shifts to the 1B ump. He is the sole judge in the world if the swing went far enough to be called a strike. NY cannot overrule on replay because THERE IS NO OBJECTIVE description in the rules. There is no measurement to use. It is what the ump says it is. End of story. Go cry elsewhere.
Anyone else think the center fielder should have dove at least? Seemed catchable
Yes, I was thinking the same thing. Why not? If he misses it, so what. It’s a run either way. I think he realized that once the ball dropped.
Absolutely should have laid out for it. However, miss or catch the game was lost. Even if he catches it on a dive though smith likely would have tagged and scored.
No really. Smith was 1/3 down the line when the ball landed.
As a dodger fan I kinda feel like that was a Mickey Mouse walk off since the dude kinda hesitated to catch it
Didn’t really matter if he dove and caught it the runner at third would have still went scored the winning run regardless. Wouldn’t have been enough time after the catch to get up and make a throw.
CFer is just like yeah im not diving for it or anything. Lol
As an armchair athlete myself, Ya
Dodgers fans gonna have alot to cheer about this year
is that a ws perdiction
Tie & walk-off hit were both on really good pitches.
Center fielder BLEW it. Legit stopped short had no urge to get that ball lol.
I think he forgot the situation. That was a mental error. Doesn’t show up in the box score, but mental error noted, and I think he knew it.
Man!!!!! The crowd is going WILD and you can feel it through the phone!!! Man, I wonder how that felt.
It was loud, pretty full park last night
It's electrifying at Dodgers Stadium this year.
@@IAmBiguous427 awe man!!! I want something like this, for my first experience
Hope you guys continue to keep going, go for the one that can’t go 🥲 like me!
@@sarahlee3056always is for night games!!!
Shohei and Andy Yeah!!
この時期なのに、プレーオフみたいな緊張感があって面白い試合！
Amazing game, Ohtani tied the game 3-3 and Andy Pages last hit won the game.
Ohtani hit good changeup 🎉🎉
ngl during the swing i was mad that he expanded the zone with risp again but watching it back that was a nasty change. how the hell did he make good contact there?!

Wow, that was exciting!

😂😂 as it should be.
Nothings good about anything to do with Gaylifornia way to brag about your crappy city..
Well put my brother, and I agree!!!! GO Doyers
Braves still going to crush y’all in playoffs
As a dodger fan ...THE CITY IF L.A. IS GARBAGE
This guy has saved the back half of the Dodger lineup
The first time watching Page. I didn't watch his first four at bats. I like his approach at this pressure at bat.
This could be the most stressful at bat for the pitcher. Why didn’t he bunt though, isn’t a bunt guarantees that win too.
@@Ohtani9999 no because it's to risky to bunt. With 1 out runners on the corners a hard hit sac fly is the approach
Harris should’ve slid or dove. Why the hell did let it drop like that?
that pitch he threw to ohtani was amazing.. nothing you can do there..
Yep, great piece of hitting. A defensive swing with 2 strikes but has enough strength to get it through the infield. Very old school at bat.
Pages is fearless. Dodgers have another unanticipated weapon.
And thats why he makes the big bucks,
AWESOME GAME. BIG WIN 💙💙
What a game nice win lad
Hahaha, love the OW when Shohei's Head of Marble hit the 1st Base Coach's - and that grin by Pages - he knew what the pitcher was going to do and he's like "oh, okayyyy"
That check swing on Pages prob should've been a strikeout on him but I'll take it. Bad umping happens to every team.
Well, a team still has to do something with an extra chance. Freddy dropped a foul popup for an error, giving that Brave another chance. It didn’t lead to a run.
Pages still had to actually put the ball in play. He did. The Dodgers won.
If you can see the entire barrel from that tv angle, it's a swing lol.
Got away with one
@@waynekerr67 True, HP ump and FB both missed it.
I think it could have been called either way, but as a pitcher I wanted it lol
With how close it was, either call would have been right honestly
Nice win Blue Crew.. Liking Pages aggressiveness. But he had a couple walks on that AB
looks like he went around... not gonna lie... but the other angle looked good 😅
Piss poor effort by center fielder on that last at bat
For some odd reason, we feel everybody wins when Ohtani does well.
How do you not lay out for that catch?
I know the air in that stadium is electric
What an at bat for Pages
Should the centerfielder not have gone all out and dove for the ball knowing its do or die, seems like he could've reached it if he tried.
Only ONE out, TIED score, BOTTOM of the last inning, and runner on THIRD. NO chance.
@@cyrusvirus6928he could’ve slid and made the catch, Will Smith was not waiting to tag, meaning if caught he would’ve had to go back to 3rd base to tag up.

Outfielder has to make a better effort at that
Thought that ball should have been caught, but I’ll take it…GO DODGERS!
He will be the rookie of the Year
ANDY PAGES❌
ROTY PAGES✅

I understand they're playing under the lights but that didn't look like the lights were affecting him at all. It looks like he just gave up on the play.
the quality of this video aggravates me
He refused to get walked and refused to strike out. I’ve never seen an at bat like that. He earned to get moved in between Ohtani and freeman
I don’t know allllll about that but I do like him at the bottom of the order. Giving balance.
0:08 好帥的眼神
Can someone explain the dragon ball gesture. Does it mean anything or just a thing they do?
I was confused why you pitch to him in this situation, but they didn't really. He hit it anyway.
Ohtani would caught his hit ball had he been on that mound.
looked like he went around to me.
He should have dove , that was too close to him.😢
No one gonna say anything about how that at bat would’ve been over if the ump just made the right call and said that was a swing when it clearly was
Center fielder should have made a dive for it. Anyway, the rule putting a guy at second in extra innings is a joke.
Harris let up too early and hesitated. Even if he wouldn’t have gotten it, he needs to lay out for that ball.
If he went full speed and dove for it, they still would have tagged and scored.
That check swing should've been a strike. Period
Doesn’t really matter it’s not the postseason and that’s where we get the terrible calls from the umpires year after year after year goes all the way back to Bumgardner and Kershaw
Bull pen gave it up again. Bull pen has been a problem for years and has kept up from winning more than one Ring.
Well the Braves ain’t exactly the worse team isn’t it?
Did Shohei just say "Come on" after reaching first base? I fully expected him to say something in Japanese. 😉😉
Everytime ohtani slumps hitting, the pitching becomes very simpler and location is fixed (this time same velocity of pitching and outside only, nothing going to be in low or high, though pitching freeman to all corners). all home runs this year are same. ops with or without base runners is also so different. is ohtani really a good baseball player?
I wonder how much ohtani bet on this game
I should have bet on this game
He easily went on that 1-2 pitch should have struck out lol.
wow that centre fielder did not dive for the ball
That's what I was thinking. Looked like he didn't even need to dive... just stretch out your arm
5:32 seems he didnt understood its a extra bottom inning.
It doesn’t matter lol, in OT you just need to score and you win. Even if he caught it out, Dodgers will score one and jsut win
after dive for the ball, will unable to have enough time to get up and pass back to home to tag out the runner. ( dive may have chance cause injury, not worth it )

That was a swing. Pages swung that shit. Idc what anybody says
I never cheer against the Braves but the Dodgers with Ohtani have created some internal conflict that is only increasing.
Ohtani had the over.
Bench that CF'er for eternity.
yes pages hit the game winner BUT he needs to have more discipline in his at bat. the moment got too big for him. that is why he keeps swingning pitches way out of strike zone. he just got lucky tonight that those balls he hit were fouls.
CF just gave up on a catchable ball.
First base coach is wack for not dappin him
Pages swung at strike 3. GG umps.
He could have caught that easy
Go dodger Blue!
Pages is here to stay. Dude can hit and he will end CT3 career. CT3 cannot hit and even though he can play different positions, hes a liability at the plate. Lux is starting to hit but Outman needs to go to the minors
CT3 getting on to home plate with his garbage season is more impressive. LOL.
軸回転できずインサイドアウトにバットがでずインハイや速球に苦労している大谷になぜ外角ばかり投げたのか

Dodger bats had to bail out the awful bullpen yet again.
Pages should have been out on that check swing but umps wanted the game to end game was fixed
Should’ve would’ve could’ve it’s the umpires call 😊
I wonder how much money ohtani is paying this interpretor to take the fall for his gambling problem
Lazy outfielder. I played outfield and always dove and caught those.
Padres dont stand a chance 🔥
🤔🫣🤓🥳
Playoff atmosphere every night.
The good ole dying quail
My ears are dead
Another bad call, another inept umpire. The MLB has a serious problem.
People been saying that for decades. It about as much a part of baseball as beer and hot dogs.

lame fielding. all this is fine and good, but the dodgers still suck...
Lost respect for the OHTANI guy.
