Jay Johnson would have bunted Brad Cresse in the 2000 CWS Finals

Runners on first and second, 0 outs, tie game, bottom of the 9th. Cresse had one hit the entire CWS up to that point. Skip let his man swing away.
Last night runner on first and second, 0 outs, up 3, bottom of the 7th. Tre Morgan had zero sacrifice bunts on the season. Tre was batting almost .500 in the CWS up to that point. Jay called for the bunt.
Just having a little fun this morning. The bunt call was bad, but I’m super excited to be in the position where we are right now. Jay has assembled and managed this team to be one of the final 3 teams still playing. Let’s see a little more magic tonight and this weekend!

In a park where runs are at a premium, bunting Trey was absolutely the right call

Bunting has been the only baffling thing to me so far. Everything else for the most part has been spot on. Hopefully he realizes this now since we haven't been a bunting team all year that we don't need to start now.

The Morgan bunt attempt was a great call and would have for sure caught wake off guard. Morgan just didn't execute it.

Dumb take. But I laughed.

Almost as stupid as trying to bunt Thompson twice and getting to pop outs.
Posted on 6/22/23 at 9:18 am to Choupique19
You don’t bunt with the No. 3 hitter, especially one that’s been hot. If he rips a shot into a corner, you’re getting at least one run and maybe two. And Morgan hasn’t been asked to bunt much this year. Dumb call.
Just because you win the game doesn’t mean the move was smart, especially since it didn’t work.

the bunt call was the right call.
runners on 3rd and 2nd takes away the double play ball, scores the guy from 3rd 99.9% of hits (Beloso’s being the 0.1%)
morgan just broke the #1 rule of bunting: don’t go up for a bunt

After what I saw Dugas do for for the Tennessee game I would have let Tre hit and bunted Dugas
Posted on 6/22/23 at 9:19 am to Choupique19
I bet not. He’s called like 15 bunts all year. They were playing for 1 run to stretch a 3 run lead to 4. I didn’t love it either but Jays not just reaching for bullshite. He’s proven to be pretty methodical and intentional about every decision
Posted on 6/22/23 at 9:19 am to Choupique19
Dumb take. LSU fans are so miserable.
Posted on 6/22/23 at 9:20 am to Choupique19
It’s not that big of a deal. I wouldn’t have done it, but I can see why you would. Morgan had to not bunt a ball at his eyes.
Posted on 6/22/23 at 9:23 am to Choupique19
Can the T-ball team you coach bunt
Posted on 6/22/23 at 9:26 am to Choupique19
The next batter showed why he made that call, if memory serves. Didn't Dugas GIDP after that?
Posted on 6/22/23 at 10:07 am to Choupique19
The wind was not blowing in and keeping HR balls inside the park by 40+ feet. Dugas hit a ball 112 MPH off the bat and it didn't even come close to leaving the park. That is how bad the wind is. Bunting was 100% the right move there. Learn the fricking game before making a dumbass post like this.

Get over it. We won. It's a new day and we get to watch more LSU baseball.
