Had this situation this weekend and have heard a couple of viewpoints so I'm curious.
Situation: Last inning (time expired) up by 2, runners at 1st and 3rd, 1 out. Runner is stealing 2nd and if you throw the runner at 3rd scores most likely. Good catcher/SS but being honest probably 25% chance we execute this perfectly from pitcher to catcher to SS (10U). Good team we have played a lot so trick plays don't work really any more.
What would you do?
I've always had the philosophy that you try to keep the tying run out of scoring position if you can so we threw at the runner stealing 2nd and barely missed her (I thought we had her), allowing the run, so it didn't work out.
