My guess is because Volpe sucks hitting this year and Boone figured a bunt would get runners at second and third where a sac fly would score a run... Plus he does lead the team in sacrifice bunts this year... But that is just a guess since most teams don't attempt bunts very often... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bottom of the 9th? 10th? yeah I could see it. There? Nope. You like their manager? Is he pretty good? No. He runs a country club and the front office makes his lineup out for him. He could manage from home. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That’s ALL Mendoza does is fill out the lineup (150 different combinations so far). His in game decisions are non-existent or down right stoopid. Yes players are not performing but manager is crap.
