Padres won today because of this. Jackson Merrill straight ignoring the stop sign and scoring the second run of the game.

I think for more athletic players, the third base coach is unnecessary (aside from relaying signs when they are on second). For the less athletic players, I think they are very valuable. But would be cool to see some stats to back this theory up

plays like these make me wonder how much teams need a third base coach. 

sometimes players know better. sometimes coaches make bad calls. 

actually curious if there are stats around this.

contrarily, this is how the yankees lose most games
