Sabathia tried to make the perfect pitch to Manny after getting an 0 - 2 count. CC thought a BB to Manny was better than giving up the grand.
Oh wow, I didn’t see that walk coming.

I still disagree....Lugo was already in scoring position and you gave the other team an out. Right now it could be Sox batting and scoring with nobody out so the Indians could not get out of the inning with a double play. But hey, its a philosophy thing. Would make an interesting study.
