And what comes of that bunt. 3 runs ended up scoring . It led to a rally. These are the things the Yankees in previous years refused to do. Nothing wrong with small ball.

Matt Carpenter is launching bombs.

I wonder if Yankees fans still want boone fired and Joe back now lol. Turns out it’s all about the players who office and who you got

Blzer please start talking about the Giants again and give this guy something else to talk about.

I don't think anybody wanted Joe back. Philly obviously got tired of Joe and his binder. I ve never liked Boone either. But I will admit he's been much more aggressive with his moves this year like his job is on the line.

Matt Blake has been the missing link though. I love that guy. No nonsense. And the pitchers have followed suit.

I'm surprised more guys dont even bother learning to bunt. Most specifically guys with extreme shifts.

Tired of getting out because teams have 3 guys standing between 2B and 1B? Learn to bunt the ball toward 3B. Easier said than done, but it doesn't have to be perfect bunts in these cases, just keep it fair and aim for that direction. If anything, the further the better.

I really don't either. It's baffling to me. Same with stealing. You are putting pressure on the defense. That's a good thing.

I think Michael Kay just said the only Tiger with enough plate appearances to qualify hitting above .200 is Miguel Cabrera. Dear god.

Meanwhile Judge continues the hunt for all the money.
