Why not take the free base? We need runners on base tomorrow.

We don’t have many guys on this team who can execute a perfect bunt

They can’t bunt, otherwise they would have done it by now. The bunt is going away in baseball.

Not always but I think Pearson should have done it in the 7th. Would have brought up Doughty as the tying run and he may be the hottest hitter on the team right now.

Outside of Stevenson you don't want to take the bat out of their hands with the power they bring. Unless its a leadoff situation.

Bunting is like shooting a free throw. Everyone should be able to but a lot of players don’t care about learning how to.

I agree but the only person I would bunt is Stevenson. What I don't like is we play station to station and don't steal when there are balls in the dirt except for Bianco the other night. We rely on base hits, walks, and homers. Last night since we were not hitting we should have played a little more small ball and tried to manufacture runs for momentum purposes.

Bunting in college baseball is a thing of the past so teams may have a machine set up to work on bunting but with very little if any instruction. Unless their offensive philosophy is "small ball", the feeling is the 27 outs in a game are precious so why give any of them up with a bunt.

The Chick's don't dig the long bunt.
