                                Well he hit. And it was basically a bunt.

Yes do you understand he is hitting .220?

                        I don't believe in taking the bat away from the hot hand. Usual Cozart, yes, you bunt. He was 4-4 against one of the best pitchers in the league though. Also, I would've been ok with him bunting in a situation where he could've hit into a double play.Azubuike24;1446734 wrote:Career .225 hitter though. 100% right move. Luckily, Choo knows how to run.

                        All four of his hits were against Harvey, though. He's going to see the ball differently coming from a different pitcher. It's absolutely the right call to get the runner over there by laying one down.se-alum;1446741 wrote:I don't believe in taking the bat away from the hot hand. Usual Cozart, yes, you bunt.

I understand he is hot "this game" but why wouldn't you want to get the runner to 3rd for Votto with 1 out?

Ok but I would still rather have 1st and 3rd then 1st and 2nd. If they didn't get the runner from 2nd to 3rd.
