Also, it's different to bench a guy for not running vs a guy slumping...

Chiz should have bunted on his own, IMO. Young guy would've earned a lot of respect if he had

Runner at 2nd nobody out and you don't even try to bunt.

The inning should have played out
Steal for Stubbs (we got the passed ball instead)
Sac bunt for Chiz
Pinch hit Santana for Gomes
Win on a Santana ball in play

Agree to disagree. I'd bunt with almost anyone not named Miguel Cabrera, especially Lonnie freaking Chisenhall. And yes I know he's been doing.Crimson streak;1469612 wrote:He's been red hot I would have let him swing the bat

A bunt in a monsoon could've ended the game.

Or even gotten Stubbs out at 3rd. I don't mind that decision honestly

The guys in the clubhouse know who's a slacker and who's not. If you bench Swisher on the basis of that one play, you'd risk a lot of hard feelings and lose alot of respect. Earlier in the year, Kipnis didn't run out a dropped third strike...do think he's a slacker?
Albers gets the first two, and is now working himself into a jam with walks to Miggie and Prince....:thumbdown:

Great execution in the bottom of the ninth and the usual great relief pitching in the 10th. Tickets will be easy to come by because the casual fan is not going to pay to watch this shit

I dunno. I don't see how you can be behind a decision to let a guy who has been a AAAA player for a few years and is in the midst of his FIRST ever hot streak. You have to take the bat out of his hands, imoCrimson streak;1469627 wrote:Or even gotten Stubbs out at 3rd. I don't mind that decision honestly

Just our luck. We'll probably find a way to lose by Swisher's run lol

grrrr. outmanaged . Drew Stubbs on second and nobody out...and never moved. If you want to beat the Tigers you have to attack their defense with speed.
I don't care how hot a bat Chiz is swinging, you have to move the speedy runner to third.....and then bring in an experienced bat to hit for Gomes who was clueless all nite at the plate. Tito played it safe and didn't go for the win when it was in his reach.

How do you lose that game? Lead off runner reaches, what, 6 times and didn't score? Seems like it.

Did anyone watch the post game presser? I'm just wondering why Tito didn't have Chiz bunting....and Laley, did you end up staying for the entire game?
