Let's see if we bunt? Replay of the same situation the other day right?
Not really. The 8th inning of a tie game is not close to the 5th inning when we're behind a run.
Right now a one run game is comparable to being down by 6.
The series of posts here is a bit confusing, but to be clear, I thought we should have bunted a few nights ago in the 8th and not today in the 5th.
Sorry for the confusion. I think both situations warrant the bunt. Our offense just isn't clicking. Ideally a sac bunt puts 2 RISP. To me that opens up more options to score instead of just a base hit with runners on 1 and 2. Advancing runners and having one out gives you the options of FC, Sac fly, basehit, wild pitch to score.
We gotta do whatever we can to push runs across. The GIDP killed any momentum we were gaining.
