Dunn calls every single pitch so Dunn likely told the C to make two pitchouts, I highly doubt that CPM told him what to do in that situation. Dunn is obviously smarter than every one on this board when it comes to pitching so yes it was a huge risk but stop blaming CPM.

You honestly think Dunn is gonna do something like that, in that crucial situation, without the Head Coaches consent. You sure is dumb.

Dunn obviously calls the pitches but I don't think it is a stretch to think Mainieri is involved in calling pitchouts, both when they work and when they don't.

I think CPM trusts dunn to make those decisions, no-one has the guts to call out Dunn, they just want to blame the head coach.

If it had worked nobody would be questioning it right now. Some one you fans without your hindsight baseba knowledge simply amazes me.

I'm not saying every pitch. I'm saying pitch outs when you have a 2-2 count with men on in the bottom of the ninth. Knowing CPM and how he over coaches sometimes, I can guarantee he had a say so in calling the pitch out.

You're not calling a 2-2 pitch out in that spot without running it by the manager. That goes beyond calling a pitch, that's a game management call.

It's clearly Dunn's fault. Nothing to do with youth at the position.

I guess all of our coaches suck now. I thought Dunn was safe.

I don't care if it was Maineri, Dunn, Torre, Larussa, or freaking Connie Mack.....I don't think it was the right call in fact it bordered on idiocy.

Risky call that didn't pay off. It happens sometimes.
