I was listening to a baseball show on Sirius, can't remember which one, but they were talking about bunting runners over to try and get them in scoring position and actually scoring the runs and statistically you are better off having your batters swinging than bunting...


While true, that stat ignores things like who is at bat, who is on the bases, who is on deck, who is pitching etc.

There is a time and a place for the sac bunt. Having said that, I wouldn't have bunted in that situation. I would have rathered see Arkansas record an out on their own.

The bunt is stupid in the first inning for a hitting team like LSU. If you're coaching to avoid the DP, you shouldn't be coaching. Why not just avoid baserunners altogther? Becuase there are a LOT more positive outcomes than negative ones from hitting away in the first damn inning.


With Coleman pitching any run is very important. Im not saying you're wrong..but if Ross is pitching we might not be bunting IMO...

It looked like one...was he just supposed to be totally silent until the play was over??? Everyone in that park probably thought is was a homer....

The ONLY time im ok with a sac bunt, is if you have runners on 1st and 2nd with no outs moving runners to 2nd and 3rd, to get two runs on a base hit, which also gets you out of a double play situation
