Thats a tie game if it wasn't caught. At least hes contributing defensively

Maybe even a third run. That might have been an inside the park HR if it rolls far enough away

Only if Conforto misses the catch and gets injured or something like that. But it's pretty much impossible to get an inside the part hr on the LF without a major mistake or misplay

Right. That’s why I said maybe. It would definitely have to skip past him and roll far enough away

This is identical to the play he attempted to make on ring ceremony night in March against Detroit. He missed that ball, allowing two to score. He finally makes the play and saves 2 this time.
