Rollins' inability to move the runners just cost us a run.

Well, bunting is not generally pretty dumb. It can actually be extremely effective, when executed well. It's just that generally most situations don't call for players to bunt. When you are talking about the White Sox, yes bunting is generally pretty dumb because most of them can't really bunt.

Giving up outs is almost never a good idea. I love when other teams bunt against the White Sox.

Abreu now just 9 for 38 with RISP.

 

Need better from our best hitter.

Bunting is giving away outs. You should never give away outs.

What are you kidding me? It's called sacrifice. Ever hear of a runner on 2nd with no one out and hitting a ball to the right side to advance the runner? How about a sacrifice fly? It's strategic and can be used very effectively in close games. Depends on the lineup, but it can and I believe should be utilized. Small ball.

Come on Todd, don't leave them out there.

There really isn't a need for the last sentence.

You should NEVER generate an out.

 

If Rollins would have bunted there, the inning is already over.

Frazier with another clutch RBI. Thank you very much.

Attaboy Todd!

That's why you never bunt. Seriously.

Hell yes. Ball gets away

Omg an RBI single for Frazier!

Nope, 2nd and 3rd, one out, and chances are Abreu gets a sac fly

Todd Frazier, ladies and gentlemen. Todd Frazier!

FRAZIER IS SUCH A TIMELY HITTER

I edited it.

HUGE hit from Frazier!!! Yes!

Frazier only hits in when it matters.

Now this would have been Melky... :/

It would have been nice if Melky could hit here...f***in' Laz Diaz.
