For one, if your point is that I understand and can execute basic in-game tactics better than probably 50-60% of current MLB managers, then yes - you're right. Having a better understanding of baseball tactics than MLB managers hasn't been a particularly high bar to clear for about 30 years now at least.
More importantly though, why are we now talking about a blowout? We were talking about a 1-run game in the 9th inning before you walked away with the goalposts.
