In a critical moment during the Reds' game against the Chicago White Sox, Spencer Steer hit a leadoff double but failed to score due to poor baserunning. After advancing to third on a sacrifice, Steer hesitated instead of running home when the pitcher Jonathan Cannon slipped while fielding. This resulted in his being thrown out at third, which exemplified a lack of decisiveness. Analyst Barry Larkin emphasized the importance of making confident decisions on the field, especially during tough games.
"Either you're going on contact or you're not," Fanduel Sports Network analyst and National Baseball Hall of Famer Barry Larkin said. "Didn't really look like he was going on contact..."
"What you love to see is either you go or you don't go. And you make a decision. And when you struggle, that kind of heightened - right, all the indecisiveness is questioned if you will."
