I just watched the replay (again!), and I maintain R2 was only about 1/3 of the way to 3B.
Amazing how the pundits take it for granted that--without this call--the Braves would have gone on to a stellar inning.
About THIS hypothetical. Kozma camps out, Holliday peels off, no IF is called, Kozma lets it drop and gets the force at 3B. Now the Braves would be SCREAMING for the IF to be called.
Plus, this ballsy, gutsy call is the lead story by many wags. Forget the Braves' errors, leaving men on base, et al.
