Bunting with two strikes is an objectively stupid thing to do.
you realize he is removing the chance of hitting into a double play when he says to bunt with 2 strikes, right?
The objective is to move the runners before 2 strikes... with 2 strikes you call a bunt so you know you won't hit into a double play

How about you gotta execute the fricking bunt because you play baseball at a high level

Because if he gets the bunt down it's 6-3 not 5-3

So you think bunting your 4-hole with 2 strikes is a good idea? Please put it on the record so everyone can know how retarded you are


Well a national title winning hc just did it so it let's hear your accolades. I'm sure you've coached teams to multiple national titles and a few world series titles.

Whom am I nor you to question a NC coach?


So, are you going on record that no one should have criticized Les Miles's 3 yard and a cloud of dust offense? What about 1/9/12? No reason to question anything from that game?

How about going on that same record and saying that no one should have criticized many of the questionable things Ed O did in 2020-2021?

Just because you have won a NC doesn't mean you are beyond reproach.

Jake already had a base hit and UCLA switched to a leftie. We had 2 righties coming up after Jake I'm not criticizing the coach I just don't understand it.

Especially after 2 strikes.

Thank God Luis got a hit to score a run.

Might have gotten more than 1 run not giving up an out. Bunting that early is short-sighted, even with Eyanson on the mound.

Just hate bunting that early when both teams have already combined for 7 runs at that point. If it’s Skenes against Lowder in 2023, that’s the exception to the rule.

I know you’re trying to move them over which normally is the right thing to do but not with Jake brown.

Jay should have abandoned it right after strike 1



He bunted him because of how poorly he hits vs. lefties.

I’m ok with the bunt there, until two strikes.



I think he completely whiffed it, so the two strikes part didn't matter.

Yes you can argue swing or bunt there until there is 2 strikes - then it’s simply an ABSOLUTE NO!

Idk if he missed clean or tipped it into the mitt.

But Brown doesn’t offer at that pitch if he’s not squared to bunt.
