Not complaining but two poor calls...

Katz holding the runner at first. Awful oversight!
If you've decided to bunt why accept such a huge defensive drop off at catcher? I wouldn't call this a bad decision, but it's suspect.
It was a great decision to bunt Sciambre because he had a poor lefty matchup.

Maybe it will cause us to make better decisions down the road in more meaningful games

Thanks.

For the possibility of a close play at the plate on a fly ball. Chinea is fine playing defense for the bottom of an inning

I didn't mind that, there was only one out- it kept the force in effect as well as a possible game ending double play.

what about lairds hit clearly fair

So in a tie game it's better to play conservative rather than get the run? Ross is the slowest runner on the team. It's a sub you make...period.

I didnt mind it because cotton is a ground ball pitcher and it kept the double play in tack.

look no guarantee he is going to bunt it successfully if its a bad bunt he may be thrown out at third. the distance of the pop fly needs to be further because of ross slow speed. Bring in a speed guy don't worry about being thrown out at third if a hard bunt, and you can hit it shorter and still get the run in. It was a no brainer call and EVERY coach in baseball would make the swap. You want to win it doesn't matter if you have a good defensive catcher in the bottom of the inning if you take the lead, and it the lead matters more then defense at that point of the game.

...because the speed on the bases could have made a difference on a play at 3rd on the bunt, or on a play at the plate with the infield drawn in...or a sac fly.

It seems that this will always happen with Manieri's teams. But when he's dialed in and aggressive when he needs to be, the guy gets it done.
