I do not know if I agree with that. That was at least the pick off play was a closer play and a quick play. The play at third would have been made correctly if he just moved a little one way or the other. He assumed players were where they were instead of seeing them. I am not a fan of the pick off play call, but at least we have all had very close plays like that and the main way we know he missed that call was by the replay. You hardly needed a replay to judge what was wrong with the play at third base.
