[quote]In a game that you know is going to be a pitcher's duel, a sac bunt when the lead off hitter gets on base is the percentage play at any point in the game,. In that particular situation, if Bregman bunts the runner over to second, you have Katz and Rhymes coming up with a runner in scoring pos...

[quote]To answer the OP's question--I would have bunted him.
In fact, I would have bunted every instance the leadoff batter got on base.[/quote]

Early in the game (4th inning or so..) Laird gets on w/his infield single bringing up Bregman. I know he's the 3 hole hitter etc... but I really thought PM would have him...

As I think back over this year... as best I remember, the only times LSU has struggled has been against good pitching. South Carolina beat us two out of 3 at home and we struggled against Stanek in the SEC tournament. Okla has 2 very good pitchers. I'm hoping a little magic from the atmosphere at...

We do have a weak regional which is why.. I think.. Espn is not televising it. And.. unfortunately, it doesn't seem like these kids have completely learned from Stony Brook last year.. Just because they put the jersey on does not guarantee a win. But, they did pull it out. Thankfully. ...
