What an F job Puig was. Had it in the bag like 4 times. WTF. Sort of balanced out though by that Ito retirement. That was huge. I should have put 2 dimes on Ito instead of 1. Stevy J is not a -400 type player.

I missed that one. Fill me in please

as an aside, i hate the sac bunt. it is the worst play in baseball. all these teams hosing themselves with the sac bunt. indians in 6th 2 men on no out. sac bunt = no runs. same with mets in ninth. hate it. its just a terrible play. as long as you dont roll into a double play you get two shots to get the guy home from second and guess what if you hit a grounder after the sac bunt there is a good chance you wont score your guy from third. its straight idiotic.

100% agree. I never grasp why this play is used as much as it is. Bad managing.

Earl Weaver hated the bunt, he preferred the 3 run HR. :0074

Pads with 1/2 no outs in 10th. They try to bunt and it doesn't work, throw guy out at third. It's just mind numbingly stupid. Unless its the pitcher, you are better off swinging the bat.
