I don't blame the players, I blame the coaches for not having them taking a strike when they see the other pitcher is wild at the moment

chapmans threw lots of sliders and the player would just look dumb if chapman let one hang in the zone.
unless its a 3-0 count managers dont usually tell players what to do.

You can certainly play it like that and it's what Francona decided to do in this case. I happen to disagree with the style.
After the Home Run, Crisp hit a single right away. Both hits were on pitches out of the strike zone and believe me there are guys keeping track of that for both teams. Once Crisp gets the go ahead run on first, you need to focus on moving him to 2nd and scoring position. Chapman was struggling badly and it was obvious he could not hit the strike zone. Every hitter should have been taking the first strike then hit away after that.

The homerun pitch was clearly a ball, by a lot. The single was borderline yes but he was still pitching wildly.
We can agree to disagree though :)
