What if he does bunt him over and the next two guys still strike out. Are people mad at Paul for giving up an out and not allowing his guys to play? Personally I don't think there is a bad call in that situation. It's a philosophical choice. Some people believe on the road you play for the win and at home you play for the tie. Maybe that's what Paul was thinking. I got my ace on the mound that can give me another inning let's try and get two and win the game in 9 innings instead of extras. It didn't work so of course everyone thinks it's a bad call. The fact of the matter is he didn't ask the next three guys to strikeout they didn't execute what was asked of them either.

Of course there is a situational element to it based on peronnel. Can you explain why PM would have the bunt called with the runner on first then? Because the fact that he had it called to begin with completely destroys your argument.

ETA: would you also defend him less if you knew most people were upset by the no bunt call prior to it not working?
