Why is an intentional walk in a close baseball game rarely a good idea?
An intentional walk usually happens for one of two reasons: - to fill an empty first base and enable a force out at second, third or home, or set up a double play - to avoid an exceptional hitter and pitch to a weaker batter following him Unless there are two outs already, an intentional walk is a risky choice. It may yield an additional, perhaps winning run on a home run, or allow the walked runner to advance to second or third (hence reach scoring position). Any walk that loads the bases could allow a run to score on another walk, or a hit batter.
