bad bunt - sori out at 2nd

He's a horrible bunter.

then he should take extra bp and learn how to do it. until then, maybe he shouldn't be asked to do it.

Can Vidro hit his 5th homerun? Is that realistic?

The possibilty is more realistic than Clayton hitting one.

as the brave announcer just said, clayton's failed bunt just cost the nats a run

Please, Marlon break out of the slump. Right now.

okay, it looks like a nail biter. Will the Braves get to the Chief? Gosh, I hope not.

Byrd can't hit at all, I thought he was alot better last year. I figured he was the type of guy that would hit for good average, guess not.

Does anybody else hate the sac bunt as much as me? Unless it's a pitcher I really don't like it. I'm sure Dave B or Tomterp have some stats to support or crush my stance.

Why not just let Sori steal 2nd?

I just hope the Chief doesn't have to face Francoeur or Andruw in the 9th because I recall both of them hitting late game HRs against him either this season or last season

Yeah, between Byrd and Church you had to figure one of them would get the job done.

C'mon D'Artagnan!!

Andruw is batting now in the top of the 8th. I sure hope he doesn't bat in the 9th. That spells trouble.

LaRoche is looking to bunt.

showing bunt

metssuck · « **Reply #141:** June 05, 2006, 09:49:38 PM »

WHy can't we lay down a bunt like that.

metssuck · « **Reply #142:** June 05, 2006, 09:49:59 PM »

They're walking Francoeur. Smart move

nyexpofan · « **Reply #143:** June 05, 2006, 09:50:10 PM »

successful bunt by the braves. francour up - w runner in scoring position

rileyn · « **Reply #144:** June 05, 2006, 09:50:34 PM »

Let me just state that I am against this intentional walk. I dont like putting the go ahead run on base.

carlfish · « **Reply #145:** June 05, 2006, 09:51:11 PM »

okay, it's time to turn a DP.

I like it. Francouer is a certified Nats killer. You remember his last at bat?

PC · « **Reply #147:** June 05, 2006, 09:51:44 PM »

We, absolutely, positively, need a double play here.
