Actually just plain fucking stupid to pitch to idk the best batter on the team when they could take a base.

Well intentionally putting the tying run in scoring position and lead run on base to face a very clutch playoff star who just homered last at bat isn’t an obvious call by any means.

Bringing in Ray was dumb though

Obviously. I agree pitch carefully like there is a base open but the plan should be to try to get him out

Hindsight is 20/20. Outcome ≠ proof it was the wrong move. A single by Alvarez would have possibly brought the game within one. You walk him, Bregman singles, and it's probably tied.
