He doesn't have another infielder to put in

in a game that for 58 minutes is mostly free wheeling
with athleticism and speed and momentum and rhythm the coaches begin to feel left out and bring the game to a complete screeching halt so as to set up plays.
Cut team timeouts by half and things would be better.

Riot grounds into a fielder's choice
1st and 3rd, two out. Dome up.

Riot
grounds out to Greene. They only get one. Runners at first and third, two outs. Dome comes to the plate. 2-3, walk, RBI, run scored.
LaRussa makes a pitching change, Trevor Miller to come in. Gibbon, Dome really has turned things around since last year, eh?
"That’s the great thing about baseball, you never know what’s going to happen till you get the final out." — Lou Piniella
since the end of last year perhaps.....
Dome is a proven hitter that was slumping. His numbers weren’t what people would like and he lost his confidence. Now that’s back, he’s hitting to all fields and making solid contact – this’ll be an interesting at bat to see how he performs against a lefty.
