Not sure what Schwellenbach is doing on that play, but the out at home is a contact play which NU has been playing aggressively all season. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. It’s worked for NU plenty this season.
100%.
It's textbook baseball. Grounder the other way and the guy on third is headed home. If that ball is hit anywhere but hard right at the fielder, Acker is safe. Can't fault aggressiveness on this play in particular.
