Like I said, I was fine with not bunting. But Alexei not even trying to hit the ball to right field is inexcusable.
With Pierre next, I actually wanted Alexei to try for a hit there.

Remember that when you complain about not bunting in the future.
We didn't score either f***ing way.
With this lineup it doesn't f***ing matter either way!
That said, give me a walkoff homer anyday today. Keep it tied.
There's nothing wrong with bunting a guy over to third late in games.

Thanks for realizing I was mocking some of the stupid reasons the media give us for Ozzie's horrible managing.
I knew you weren't serious, lol.

Sorry Sqwert, one hitter in the lineup isn't going to make or break this team. Ozzie knows what's going on in the locker room, so he'll make decisions based on that.
Hi Chris Rongey.

There's a "It's Black And White" radio ad that lists a bunch of stats and then says that the only stat that matters is wins.
One of the stats they list is "unforced errors." There is no such baseball stat. That's a tennis term. Errors in baseball are pretty much unforced by definition. That bugs me.
Ozzie was behind this commercial.
