How many s***ty s***ty bunts have the sox had this year? Too many to even count. They are also popping it up to the catcher or bunted it foul on with 2 strikes and striking out. On the other hand those teams can get the down succesfully. We don't have any good bunters outside of timo perez and he is not all that great. A's and the red sox have good obp as a team and pretty good averages. Not as much of a need to bunt. All around they are superior fundamental teams compared to us.
