So the AI gives out an IW to bring up the tying run with no outs? They put the winning run on deck?
We won by 2, but I was pretty nervous about this move. Do you think it was OK?

setting up a DP and pitching to a weak #8 hitter maybe? seems quite risky, but that's at least a logical explanation. somewhat logical. and you're not moving anyone else into scoring position with the walk, which would be a huge red flag.
