Fall Ball stats. It's interesting to look back at them and see who's numbers translate to the season and who's are completely opposite.

Do you understand that a bunt takes away the double play? Bunt them over with Deichman and UK has to either pitch to Laird with runners on 2nd and 3rd and 1 out, or walk Laird and pitch to Bregman with the bases loaded and 1 out.


This not necessarily directed at you Choup, but the pro-bunt people assume that the bunt will be laid down successfully and advance the runners, which is not a given.

Nothing is a given Kim. But you know the bunt is the play there.

Very true. If he wasn't comfortable bunting Deichman, sub a player who may have a better chance. Regardless of who you send to the plate, you've got to try. And most coaches would leave the bunt on in that situation with 2 strikes.

"go with the guy that you can feel confident in"

Says a lot about how he feels about certain players, good and bad.

You know who else didn't bunt with runners on 1st and 2nd with 0 outs, Brad Cresse in the 2000 CWS Championship Game.

Does anyone have time look up Brad Cresse's stats from the 2000 season and compare them to who we had at the plate the other night?

I doubt his bad knees would have allowed him to crouch down into a good bunting stance.
