So I gambled and we came up snake eyes. I was hoping that we could end up with a big inning out of it


kind of troubling. all we needed was a run. we didnt need a "big inning"



unless a big inning is just implying that we tie the game at the least

I'm not doubting some of our fans are retarded...but the highest chance of scoring one run in that situation is bunting the runner to second with less than two outs. That's baseball 101.

Exactly. The strategy should have been to move the runner via the bunt.

You don't understand the difference between an 0-0 count to your 5 hole hitter, and a 2-0 count to your 5 hole hitter? Um, ok.

OK, so nothing changed other than the count and the "guy had to throw a strike".

Priceless



Yeah, you still don't understand that a lot changes as the count changes. You are so incredibly stupid.

Not in the bottom of the 9th and you're one run down. No, my friend nothing changed. The bunt was still the best option at that time.

Its all situational in baseball. That's what many here fail to understand.

This is actually incorrect. You have 2% greater chance of scoring with a man on first with no outs then with a runner on 2nd with 1 out. So when you sac bunt you actually purposefully lower your chances

No, apparently everything stays the same. Nothing changes as the count changes. Pitch selection has absolutely nothing to do with anything.

Bottom of the ninth. One run down. Need one run to tie.

Those are the controlling factors at play. Not the freaking count.

You have clearly shown us all that you have absolutely no clue what this even means, speaking of failing to understand.

Probably not very good but CPM thought he could make the play initially.

So you're saying if the count is 2-2 you would still bunt b/c the count is not a factor?

There's a reason why everyone laughs at you on this board. Stating that you don't understand how situations dictate strategy is more than likely a contributing factor.

99.9% of managers at any level of baseball bunt the runner to second in that situation...
