Reddick really screwed it all up with the strikeout. He's been trash this WS.

I'm guessing a lot of factors played into the decision.

- Verlander not comfortable bunting (he's been in the AL for 12 years)
- McCann is probably one of the slowest players in the MLB
- Leave two runners in scoring position for Springer who has been white hot

2nd slowest according to stat cast

I can't believe the announcers even suggested bunting there
