They need to keep Desmond as far away from 1st base as possible. The play BEFORE he cemented the loss, when Rusin had Hedges picked off, Story was a little late getting over, but when the camera 1st picked him up, he was about 4 feet from 2nd, while Hedges was still at LEAST 15 feet away. AND, Hedges was actually slowing down, because, as any player above the age of 10 would've anticipated, he assumed the throw was coming and was getting ready to turn into a run down. If Desmond would've thrown the freaking ball, Hedges would've been out by about 10 feet. The fact that Story was a little wide of the bag actually, if accidentally, gave Desmond an easier throwing lane.
But his throw home on the NEXT play was borderline unforgivable. I usually don't get too excited about physical errors. They're gonna happen. But he nonchalantly(just like his decision to NOT throw to 2nd) air mailed it about 15 feet over Lucroy's head, allowing BOTH runners to score.
They've GOT to get him out of there.
