I would love to know our bunt rate total to rest of AL and our success! 

Stupid. That was a great matchup for Mendick

Timmy & Nick will have to overcome the horribleness that is Tony La Russa

TLR managing as if we're a 90s national league team

Love seeing Jason calling out the stupidity of giving away outs in the fucking 6th.

WHY DON'T WE EVER HIT AND RUN

Bunting was a bad idea but if you're going to do it at least bunt to 3rd.

Yup you can't afford to lose the lead runner there.

Did you expect anything else?

Just stupid

I just left a voicemail with Manfred's office to outlaw the bunt....I said it would speed up the game.

Lol. I agree bunting in that situation was not the best play, however it's not giving up outs. You are forcing the defense to make a tough play. I've seen a ton of botched plays on the bunt this year, whether it be errant throws, confusion on which base to throw to, difficulty picking up the ball.

In that case, if Mendick bunted to the 3B side, it would have been a good play. Would've had 2 runners in scoring position with 1 out instead of 1 runner in sciring position. But he bunted to the wrong man. Against Holland though...probably should let them swing away. Hinch couldn't have come out of that dugout quick enough to get Holland off the mound.

TA has rolled over on a lot of pitches lately.

Literally just took us out of the inning. Great job TLR

Holland couldn't get anyone out. You read the situation there and you don't bunt...

Him and Peter Quill don't learn....it's one of their issues.

So much for TLR being good with his gut instincts 

White Sox sac bunts this year: 14

 

White Sox sac bunts last year: 1

 

 

Tony is a clown ?

No.

You don't give outs to a guy who can't get outs.

fuck off TLR someone needs to say something to him.

By playing for 1 run we ended up scoring none. Thanks Tony.

Inning over, good job
