Bivens was worried about giving up a walk off grand slam

I'm not sure whether I'd rather lose that way or by walking in the winning run.

I guess we know what he chose.

Yeah, base loaded and one out, you can't pitch around.

He tried to "nip the corners" and he didn't have that level of control.

Yep, the young man was trying to hard, and that was causing him to overthrow the ball!!!

If I'm pitching in that situation I'm trying to throw a strike. The other team is going to have to earn a hit. I'm throwing fastballs.

I would not want to lose by giving up a walk.

Not me... I'd have thrown all sliders, down and away. Odds are good you could get a ground ball.

He was definitely between a rock and an Obertop....He sure didn't want to

I doubt he was worried about a grand slam when a single would have gotten the job done. He pitched tightly to a hot hitter and missed his marks. I'm also not sure how many outs there were at the time of the walk. If less than 2, then a sac fly would also have gotten the job done and trying to prevent that would have added even more pressure.
