Springer with a diving grab going back saves two runs!

Oh that was nice, watching Odor flub that DP in spectacular fail fashion.

Just some rest, one hopes. I was wondering about his left hand on that slide into home.

I suspect because it's 8-1 and he had a hammy issue recently.

He hardly ever uses his, so, yes, you should have. And you could assure him that you are at most a light drinker so there is little chance of an ybbodeus redux.
