The Play That Lost The World Series

[DW711]

Aoki's slash against Bumgarner is .000/.053/.000 in 18 AB's. Is that a matchup you bunt to create?

 

No, but he still had the best at bat against him in that game.

 

The Royals being complacent didn't help much, either.

 

A team known for speed and they don't pinch run or steal with anyone.

Actually that play was made from the Giants second baseman turning a hit into a double play.

All those failing statistics tell me is that he's due!

You need to take comedy classes with the rest of the amateurs. Creativity classes might help with that hacky "inventive" post. So anyone who thinks the bunt was a poor decision must have this hindsight power, huh? Some fans are just more advanced than you. Just like there are others who are more advanced than I am.

Who said I was trying to be funny CF8?

Bunting is the stupidest thing you can do with a baseball bat aside from hitting it over your own head.

Trying to snap it over your knee... especially if you're not built to snap it over your knee, lol!  *includes any aluminum, but mostly bbcor.

But seriously, bunting in the MLB is going the way of the long-starting pitcher.

[Season Over]

Any time you can make outs on purpose against Madison Bumgarner in Game 7 of the World Series, you have to do it.

Still talking about this, eh?  Seems to me the most KC could have done was tie the game in the 9th. Looked like MB was tiring (someone warming up - forget who) and KC COULD have come back in the 10th to win it.

 

 

 

All speculation.
