I think it got to the point where that ump was't going to give him a
strike unless it was down the middle—it was Marmol’s own fault for being all over the place, but a strike is a strike.

I'll honestly say that i dislike this sac situation
you’ve got only 3 outs left and to just give one away seems wasteful.
I’m sure a more accomplished sabremetrician could tell me how right or wrong that line of thinking is.
WOXY.com - The Future of Rock and Roll
Win Expectancy agrees with you.
I’m actually sort of surprised… I would have thought this was a decent sac situation. You can check win expectancy at winexp.walkoffbalk.com (also the graph at fangraphs shows the sac as a negative result).
Milton will get a hit
Lidge doesn’t have it.
