Gave up 5 run in 2/3 of an inning? Would have lost that bet.

Wasn't on the center fielder, him playing deep and charging on contact was the strategy with bases loaded and less than 2 outs

They left their best one on the bench today.

I didn't see that one, but the 3R triple wasn't on him. He was deep against a guy with plus power and charging a ball hit at him was the strategy with runners at 2nd and 3rd w/ less than 2 outs
Guard gaps to prevent XBH, running in on contact to protect home plate vs line drive. If it's a deep fly ball, you have time recover. If line drive gets down, you can stop runner at 2nd from scoring. If it's catchable, might be a play at the plate from runner on 3rd and forward momentum running in with help with throw velo. But that ball was smashed, how often do you see a line drive almost reach the warning track on the fly to dead center?
MLB is going to protect Skenes because of his marketability, but not publishing the Exit velo on that hit and having analysts parrot it as misplayed is pretty sleazy. It was the right strategy on >95% of balls in play
