This is silly

Bases loaded and this happens:
“It’s a 39 on Niko GOODRUM’s card.
Using Fielding 2
Result: Runner out stealing home; others advance 1 base; PO-C
Jake ROGERS is trying to steal home. Yasmani GRANDAL tags him out. Runners at second and third. Don’t know about that decision.”I don’t know about that decision either. Why would Jake Rogers, of all people, try to steal home? Why would anybody try to steal home in this situation? LOL

Anytime something wonky like that happens, I just chalk it up to being a weird play.
In this case, perhaps the pitch was in the dirt and rolled about 10-15 feet from Grandal, the Catcher.
Rogers, the runner on third, assumed he could score.
He guessed wrong… as Grandal retrieved the ball and got back to the plate in time to make the tag on a close play.
