 We had a big attempt of stealing home in game five of the World Series. Kershaw on the bump. This one's brought to you by DraftKings. We got Manny Margot in the box. 1-1 is the count. Kershaw drops the curve. Manny doesn't bite. 2-1. He goes back to the fastball trying to find that low zone. Doesn't get the call. I don't think it was there. Then he puts the little cutter slider off of the fastball. This is a great combination of pitches. I mean right there they're the same pitch basically and then it falls off the table. Manny swings at it. Kershaw's back in the count. Full count tries to get him chasing again. Manny says no thank you. Then he steals second first pitch and I'm not sure why Taylor doesn't just catch this ball. He's safe no matter what. I mean they didn't throw him as a good jump by Manny but he misses the ball and here's where it gets interesting because it goes into shallow right field and at this point Taylor's pretty close to that ball. Manny hasn't broke for third yet but he decides nah screw it. I think I can make it the third. So then they keep going. Taylor actually now he makes it a very athletic play. The sliding pick up the perfect throw to Turner. Manny beats it out. He stays on the bag. They replay it. He's safe. He bangs his hand against the ground and now he gets a good look at Kershaw who's in his motion here going home. Manny's standing on third. You got a runner on third. No outs. The tying run in a World Series game. Kershaw comes home to Renfro. He's going to walk Renfro. Count went 3-2. Then he gets Wendell to pop up. Huge out there. Then Adamus comes up. He has forgotten to bring his bat to the World Series. He strikes out on three pitches and now huge at bat. So Kershaw exhales. Keermire exhales and let's do it. They got to get this run across but now there's two outs. Keermire fouls one back. He's had some big hits this series and now you can see Manny sizing up Kershaw looking at him. Muncie's at first. Let's see what happens. Manny breaks for home. Kershaw steps off, throws home and they get him out and Manny says no, no, no, no, save. Let's take a little replay. Let's take a replay. So sure. Let's take a little replay. Now Kershaw's got this motion. People have tried to steal home on him before because of this because he brings his hands up, builds himself a little house. That's his domain. That's his safe space. Getting his mind right before throwing the pitch. Manny breaks for home. Now it gets interesting because Kershaw has to step off so he doesn't balk. He steps off, fires it home, a nice tag by Barnes. Did he get him? Yep. Right on the wrist there before he touches home plate. Real nice. And to add insult to injury, the helmet attacks Manny while he's sliding, busts open his lip. Now he's got, you know, he ended the inning at home and a bloody lip. Not good. Muncie with the huge assist here. Go home, go home, go home. And what's cool is how quickly Kersh gets this ball to home after Muncie lets him know. Because now Kershaw said in an interview, hey, when I'm in this place, when I'm in my safe space, I'm not going to look at him anymore. So he's told his first baseman, you got to let me know if they're going or not. So Muncie goes points and look how quickly Kershaw steps off and gets the ball home from the first point. Ready? Here it is. Point, fired home. Out. A lot of people are like, how do you not balk because it's crazy. He has to step off so you can see him step off. The other option is to just throw the pitch. But if you throw the pitch, the catcher has to stay behind the dish. He can't pop up and go into the opposing batter's box to catch the ball and all that. It has to be, you know, a real pitch. This is what his windup would look like if he didn't step off. How much slower it would have been. Probably would have been safe. It's a really good play by Kershaw. He steps off, really good play by Muncie to get the assist and then Muncie comes up in the next inning and just slams the 99 mile per hour fastball into the right field seats, pimps the shit out of it. Big swing in the game. Big swing. Reyes had a shot and then they blew it. Muncie capitalizes. Bellinger says, please don't hurt me. Don't hurt me. Don't hurt me. Go gentle, go gentle, go gentle. Please, please, please. Okay. Little baby tat. Muncie loves it. He's smiling. This one's brought to you by DraftKings. Get the app. Play some fantasy sports. Baseball is over.
