Chapman seems he has lost his way, I guess using Holmes yesterday precluded him from pitching today. Down 2 runs and they have not been prolific scoring runs today.

If you truly want to win a world series,  then you can't keep  using  chapman and Hicks.  I  don't care how many games over .500  you are.  Every game counts.  Boone is an idiot. There has to be better players in the minors  then Hicks and Gallo.  Using Chapman in a tie game bad idea.  I knew he'd give up a run.  and  he  did.   Stupid  to  use  him.

Boone is an idiot? It's not Boone's decision to bring up players in the minors, that's a Cashman and front office decision. Using your closer in a tie game is a bad decision? They're paying him $18 million dollars a year to close and he's failed several times. That's not Boone's fault, Chapman didn't do the job. I'd be careful calling someone an idiot with a post like that.

Stupid was Gonzalez not bunting the runners over...down by one late in the game!

I thought with 2 on and nobody out, and especially after Hicks got picked off second, the play prior to Hick's bonehead base running mistake should have been the bunt play... But Boone, always looking for the big innings ?? We have to learn how to win with some small ball as well !!
