Could have been a different outcome if that hadn’t been called. It made a lot of sense to me. Cordell isn’t in a great spot right against right hander and he might bounce into a DP or K. I would much rather take two shots with switch hitting Garcia and Moncada with the tying runs in scoring position Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even Stone & Jason discussed it from different angles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What did you expect from this bunch especially with Alonzo and Castillo hitting in the middle of the order. Both are putrid, both are more awful Hahn acquisitions.

There are stats that show bunting does not increase the odds of scoring 1 running and dramatically lessen the chance of scoring more than 1. We have a manager who gives away outs every time in late inning close games. That is awful. I actually hate when the it works out okay because it convinces fans it was the right choice. Ricky must be criticized every time he does this irregardless of the outcome. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a smart move for Cordell to bunt there and move runners over because a hit scores 2, and Cordell may have very likely struck out or hit into a double play.
