he still has to throw out Harden. But I guess Soto would have to stop momentum.

if he checks the runner...

he isn’t going to get geo unless he races him back to third, and if he takes to long he doesn’t get the out. what the reds should have done is have keppinger cover third and concede fuk getting to second that way when he fields the bunt he can look at soto and get him if hes that far off.

Many managers (Bobby Cox comes to mind) don't want their pitchers to expend a lot of energy

on the bases or running out easy grounders. Not sure about Dusty in particular. I personally cringe when Z busts it all the way on an easy grounder. We don’t need him pulling hamstrings on the bases.
