Doesn't matter. The situation called for the runner to be moved up via the bunt. Especially since Rhymes has hit in to a loth of DPs lately.
CPM screwed the pooch.

This is getting ridiculous. Mainieri called a hit and run, which means the hitter is supposed to hit behind the runner. Therefore, it was a good call, but poor execution.

Yall are crazy. Hit and runs rarely go for a DP. It was just bad luck. You have someone at the plate batting 330, you let them hit if given the chance. Especially on a 2-0 count. Everything is in his favor. :insertcrazypillsgif:

I love how countless fans have been bitching about us bunting the entire season. Now, when we don't bunt, CPM screwed the pooch and lost the game for us. Goddamn I love our retard fans

He's batting 330 and has a +400 OBP. Saying "that's what he does" is a bullshite anomaly. He's one of the best hitters we got and to not trust him on a 2-0 count is stupid. Yeah shite happens. But it was the right play. A runner on 2nd with 1 out doesn't guarantee us a win or even a run scored. We had a chance for a big inning and it just didn't work out.

What an "out of the woodwork" this shite thread is. 3/4 of you need to go back where you came from, because you have no idea what you're talking about.

unfortunately, Raph simply has not been clutch all year... played into his late draft status, among other things the scouts did not like... let's hope he comes up big against UNC and proves the scouts wrong!

So according to Maineiri when the count went to 2-0 something in the game altered. Was the score still the same? Was it still the bottom of the ninth? What changed? Nothing changed.

quote:

They must have been playing on the line

Its the bottom of the ninth of a one run game. Everyone, with the possible exception of Maineiri knew UCLA was guarding the lines. Unbelieveable he would even say such a thing.

I've long said CPM is an outstanding coach between games but is horrible as a bench coach as things are unfurling.

where did he say he didn't think they would be guarding the lines? He just said he think the 3rd baseman was playing the line. I doubt he was watched much replay of the game by the time he gave his post game comments. Damn I feel bad for our coaches that have to deal with you knuckleheads. I get it you love the team and want to see them succeed but it's not an exact science. You play the odds. Sometimes it works. And sometimes one of the best fielding teams in the nation has a few errors giving up unearned runs to cost you the game. Sometimes a .330 batter who hasn't sacrificed bunted once all year is better off swinging away on a 2-0 count. And sometimes he hits a screamer directly at the drawn in infielder to get a double play on a hit and run.

Everything can change when the count changes.

No one gives a shite whether or not you think PM is a good bench coach.

He called a hit and run to prevent the DP. Raph didnt execute it properly.

He had 84 hits. 20 extrabase hits. 46 RBIs. Hell Bregman has grounded into 8 DP. Do you want to take the bat out of his hands too?

That's the point I was making. The third baseman WAS guarding the line as he should have been in that situation.

Are you kidding me with that excuse? How does the head coach feign being oblivious to the opponents defensive array at the most critical juncture of the game? Tellme. How is Maineiri unaware UCLA's third baseman in on the line?

Yea, as I feel bad for you for injecting a slew of words with no real meaning behind them.

No because that is almost 1/2 the amount of dp's raph has hit into. Again, why would CPM state he knew raph had that problem if it wasnt actually there? Its not a big surprise/crazy anomoly like a lot of yall are making it out to be
