Eddie Rosario Got Embarrassingly Picked Off Second But Made Up for It With a Clutch Hit

You know that feeling you have when you’re watching a horror movie and a character is completely oblivious to the killer lurking behind them? You yell at the screen, begging them to turn around, even though you know nothing you do can actually help. That’s how Cleveland fans must have felt watching Eddie Rosario loiter around second base in the sixth inning of Thursday night’s game against the Twins.

With the game tied 1–1, Rosario reached on a fielder's choice and bolted for second on a 3–2 pitch to Bobby Bradley. Bradley struck out but Rosario reached safely when Andrelton Simmons whiffed on the throw from the catcher.
