Soon After Derek Jeter’s Disapproval, Alex Rodriguez Blatantly Calls Out Diamondbacks’ ‘Mistake’ – “Bad Thinking And Worse Execution”

On a stage as high and shiny as the World Series, there’s no room for error. But the Arizona Diamondbacks paid no heed to it and suffered due to a moment of miscommunication. This mistake was thus costly for the D-Backs’ first baseman. What was a perfect ‘Trea Turner Treatment’ for Christian Walker in Game 3 turned into a premature haunt.

This moment of miscue was so evident that the legendary Derek Jeter was quick to catch it. As per a clip tweeted by @MLBONFOX, the panelists, including David Oritz discussed this on air. That said, even Alex Rodriguez could not contain his words.

Alex Rodriguez and Derek Jeter Were Quick To Highlight The Diamondbacks’ Miscue

Soon after the ‘Captain’ pointed it out during Game 4 pre-game discussions, A-Rod took to Instagram to share his firm opinion on what had gone wrong. He blatantly commented that something was not right with how the 32-year-old Walker was coached. Given that the D-Backs suffered so greatly at such a crucial point in the World Series it compelled him to use the words “It was bad thinking and it was worse execution”.

Christian Walker neglected a stop sign from his third base coach, which resulted in him getting thrown out of home plate. This commotion on the base paths deprived Arizona of the lead that could have had the Texas Rangers surrender. However, the Snakes eventually lost 3-1 to the Rangers. What transpired in the blur of a few seconds hurt piercingly?

Walker said afterward that he was trying to compensate for his slow read and was so fixated on making a tight turn around third base that he overlooked when Tony Perezchica locked his arms signaling him to stop. It is to note that a sold-out crowd of 48,517 gave Walker a standing ovation ahead of his first at-bat on Tuesday, giving him an adaptation of the ‘Trea Turner Treatment’. Alas, it fell short as Adolis Garcia threw Walker out like a piece of cake.
