Aviles was out, but it was very close.

bunting there seams weird. Was it a sac-attempt or was he bunting for a hit?

I'm normally not crazy about sac bunts, but in this situation I'm fine with it because Coco isnt necessarily trying to sacrifice, he has the bunting and running ability to get infield hits, and if it doesnt work, you "settle" for the sacrifice.

it was pretty close even on replay, definitely not worthy of going insane at the ump

Small ball is stupid in most situations. Bunting is only slightly more likely to advance a runner, and it gives up an out. Unless it's late in the game and you need one run to tie or win, it's the wrong play.
It would be like pulling your starter in the second inning to bring in the closer to get one out.

4th inning
Top 4th
Rolen strikes out (swinging) Overbay hits a ground-rule-double to right * Barajas doubles to left, Overbay scores Snider grounds out to first 3-1, Barajas to third Scutaro walks Hill singles to right, Scutaro to second, Barajas scores Rios hits an infield single to shortstop, Hill to second, Scutaro to third Wells singles to center, Rios to second, Hill and Scutaro scores Robinson Tejeda relieves Meche Lind pops out to first 4 runs, 5 hits Bottom 5th Jacobs strikes out (swinging) Callaspo grounds out to shortstop Buck flies out to right 0 runs, 0 hits * The ballboy in right mistakenly fielded a fair ball. He would have made it to second, but ruined any chance at a triple

****ing small ball in the bottom of the ****ing 3rd. Fail. I figured Hillman argued because he was embarrassed by his own stupidity. |

Guillen can only pop up the first pitch fastball he knew was coming AFTER a four pitch walk to load the bases. Brutal.

And that looked about like what I'd expect from Jacobs.
