Bunting is never the right choice in those situations, because they'll just walk the bases full to keep the DP in order. It also allows you to move further down the order, facing more inept hitters.

Kozma is down to 54 wRC+, which is the third worst batting performance in franchise history, and the worst since 1937.
He is, literally, the worst Cardinal hitter any of us have ever seen.

Not a big fan of going to Maness here. In a tie game with two outs and runners on base you don't want a pitcher who induces contact, you want a strikeout pitcher.

These games make me hate sabermetrics. The Pirates do every ****ing imaginable thing wrong. They keep giving up baserunners and giving us extra outs and the Cardinals just can't ****ing take advantage.

Two changes I'd like to see:
1. Sacrifice bunts should be outlawed on penalty of death. 2. After 11 innings, both teams should get losses. Certainly neither of them deserve to win this sticking turd. I'm going to bed. **** these clowns. |

They were. Carpenter taking that base ****s us because it ensures that our two best power hitters won't bat.
A just God would have Maness take a walk or a wild pitch.
