Looked like ball four to my eyes even though the little box thing shows the ball on the strike zone line. Clearly Crawford thought it was ball four and was heading to first when he was called out. I don't fault Crawford for not swinging at that pitch. Sadly, runner left on third.

Altherr trying to quiet the rumble of discussion that he should be sent down. He does have one option year remaining.

OK, it worked, but why do you intentionally walk a player with a runner on third and two out who is hitting under .200 and was 0 for 4 so far today? I'm sure it is some data from the analytics but just doesn't seem right to me.
