why would you BUNT in the 5th, with a tie score and men on 1st and 2nd with no outs?   WTF was that?

BTW, what game are you talking about here?

I would like to checkout out the PBP...

Tue was the bunt.  And he kept trying to bunt.  Even ahead 2-0.

Wed judge hit second

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...

I dunno...Best hitting team in baseball, 2 on in the 5th, tie score, no outs...and they bunt.  Not cool.

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.

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.

Yeah, but has he reached his line?
