I know we discussed this- but Kimbrel is a potential HOFer and the worst closer on a modern era Red Sox championship team.

Down two you definitely take the run and either 2nd and 3rd with acuna or a bases loaded with albies

Especially the way Kimbrel was pitching. There would be a good chance of him walking Albies to tie the game.

I mean, he hit the ball like 400 feet. I don't think he regrets a lot in that at bat other it not falling.
