STOP GIVING AWAY OUTS!

Sac bunt is exactly what you do in that situation. You've got your 2 & 3 hitters up next and a runner in scoring position. With a 2 run lead, it's the right call.

Great comeback at bat by Cordell.

WIMMER!!!!!!

Pretty is right...Perritt also is a fast enough guy that he could have beat that one out as well...remember now, Perritt bunted in the third, reached on an error, COrdell then bunted and Wimmer blasted a double. This time. COrdell worked a walk and Wimmer cashed it in with his three wood. Now if say J-Size or Close was bunting with a two run lead, THAT would be worth questioning

[NotAJerry]

Richardson is just cruising. Great performance so far.

[SumItUp]

6 outs to go. 7-2 middle of the 8th.

[TDDance234]

Big time performance from Richardson!

[nyblue92]

Richardson is throwing an absolute gem. He's working fast and has all the pitches working. Only 80 some pitches thrown after 7 innings and has retired 14 in a row while only striking out one. Very very impressive

Bunting in any situation other than a late game scenario where you need exactly 1 run is statistically horrible strategy. We've defied the odds today and scored multiple runs twice after bunting. Even in the situation where you need 1 run, it's not actually the wise percentage play. The expanded chart at the bottom of the link shows that the run expectancy (MLB not college) with a runner on 1B with 0 out is 44.1% while it drops to 41.8% with a runner on 2B with one out. Bunting actually decreases your chance of scoring in that situation.

Huge win. Richardson and Wimmer were phenomenal.
