I know we like to grip it and rip but.. my Lord... if the kid bunts there...Katz goes to 2nd... Ibarra walks... Moore's single prob scores Katz.

I called it, he always does that when the batter is up 2-0. No surprise he called it off.

I am never for the bunt but except for a pitcher in MLB doing it but that one really stings in hindsight.

They don't record errors on coaching calls.

I don't mind removing the bunt, but only to take, I will never understand that move.

Considering how many DPs Raph has hit into, CPM screwed that call up! NOT how I wanted the seniors to start their CWS...2 errors and 2 unearned runs...Damn it TY and Alex, you always make that play...why now???

After that game when Raph hit into like 12 DPs PM said he plays for the win not the tie or some shite like that.

Because Rhymes has t had a successful sacrifice all season and he realized that LSU never has and never will be able to bunt to save their lives.

Especially with Raph's tendency to hit into double plays. I though for sure it was sac bunt or walk. Never dreamed the bunt would be taken away. Oh well...long road to number 7 now.

Don't swing at a 2-0 when the pitcher is struggling

It's understandable

2-0 count with a senior all American hitter at the dish

I guess PM trusts that guy in that situation to cut on something he can drive

Obviously it didn't work out, but I might have done the same

Seriously put the hit and run on with DP Rhymes up. But to swing away? Bizarre.
