coming from the leader of the pack of guys that think they could coach better than PM because they took their son's tball team to the league championship

I enjoy reading the posts from the morons of the Rant that think they can coach baseball better than PM following every single loss. 98% have absolutely no clue what the hell you are even talking about.
OK I fall into the limited knowledge group when it comes to Baseball, so let me ask you, should he have bunted when we had the guy on Second, serious question, your thoughts please

I just wish he would have given Lange the chance to close it out

It is always very easy to go back in hind sight and say he should have done this or that. It's the overall melt down after every single baseball loss that is funny. Without fail, there are a bunch of fools that post about how terrible of a coach PM is when we lose a game.

Of course this is true but I am asking you, would you have bunted, I thought that is what should have happened but you seem to have a larger perspective, were you expecting them to bunt with him on second?

He threw 117 pitches through 8. These are the posts that are dead giveaways of someone that doesn't have a clue.

Sure, we could have bunted, but my point is if we had bunted and then it didn't work everyone would still be bitching and saying we shouldn't have given up an out there. I'm guessing the thought probably occurred to PM that he had the option of bunting, but maybe he didn't like it in that spot. If you bunt, there's one out. Maybe he thought Laird, a ground ball hitter, was up next and knew Ole Miss would bring the IF in and thought the odds of getting the run in with 3 chances was better than Laird knocking in the run through the drawn in IF with that part of the lineup coming up. I'll trust that a coach who has a National Championship ring AT LEAST has a reason for a decision he made.

But I am asking you specifically were you expecting a bunt process with a man on second, I was, were you? simple yes or no

What's more amazing to me is that I guess everyone is missing the face that Fraley still advanced Zardon to third during his AB. Serious question, what, in your mind, would have been different about Fraley laying down a sac bunt and Fraley hitting a fly ball that both advanced Zardon to third base with out??
Posted on 3/15/15 at 10:09 am to tigernation56
There were some bad decisions but why does Kramer Robertson come in to pinch hit? I don't understand CPM's love affair with Robertson. The guy just doesnt have it at the college level.

I guess you will not answer my question as to what you were expecting with no outs and the winning run on Second.
To me it is a similar play as in the closing seconds of a football game, you have the ball, you have the lead and all you need to do is run out the clock so the QB kneels down the number downs necessary to run out the clock.
It looked like that kind of play to me, so I am asking, you did you expect the bunt process or not, I did?

PM got the EXACT same result as a sacrifice bunt by letting Fraley swing away. Additionally, by letting Fraley swing away there was a chance of Fraley actually driving in that run. No problem with what happened. My problem with the 12th inning is a base runner getting doubled off of third on a line drive with one out in the inning.

I guess you don't get what I am asking, to me you are answering after the fact, 20 20 hind sight. And I think you may think I am trying to slam the coach, I like the coach. But I was expecting EXPECTING the Bunt process, WHAT were you expecting????

I thought the bunt was 50-50... I wanted us to swing away. If the Walrus at first doesn't make that play, we win. That's baseball.

OK, thanks, I value a knowledgeable opinion it is how I learn - have a great day!

Guys, it's not every game where your top 3 go 0-19, and decent offensive production comes from the rest of the order. The team has lost 2 games this year, and they were both where there were very improbable stats against them. The other loss almost set a record for men stranded.

yes I agree, that was amazing

Don't remember but he most likely came in to hit in the pitcher's spot. Taking Lange out was absolutely the right decision.

It was a shallow pop fly. Not nearly deep enough to advance Zardon to third. PM got lucky when the right fielder fell down and caught the ball sitting on the ground.
