Hey Pete, what happens if Lonnie scores?
Bottom of the 8th,with runners on
first and third, Cox intentionally walks Kirby and Hrbek lines into a DP. If instead of a tie game, the Braves would have led 1-0, and no way do they walk Kirby with 2nd base open. So Kirby bats, and maybe the Twins tie or go ahead.
We'll never know, but it is possible that even if Smith scores the Braves don't win.
