It was a beautiful afternoon for baseball. And White Sox manager Tony La Russa was saying what he often says, that “the beauty of baseball” is rehashing and second guessing managerial strategy and in-game decisions.
La Russa made one in a maddening 11-9 loss to the Dodgers Thursday at Guaranteed Rate Field that had everyone talking. Intentionally walking Trea Turner with a 1-2 count and first base open in the sixth inning had media from across the country, fans and the Dodgers themselves questioning why he put Turner on.
