vs. Mariners 7/27

Exactly, with good reason.

Hitting is HARD. Bunting is a form of hitting.

Therefor Bunting is HARD.

No harder than it was 30 years ago, but the technique I see employed by a lot of major league hitters today seems to indicate that they spend most of their time practicing other things, like home run swings..lol. I think AL hitting coaches spend much less time on this because they don't have to work on helping pitchers with their bunting technique as was the case before DH and is the case in the NL. I wonder how proficient a bunter Presley was.

Bunting is easier when a hitter uses the proper technique. Most of our guys don't use the proper technique, as Jim Palmer discussed yesterday. There is no reason that all of our hitters can't practice Bunting, said the best chance of executing a bunt when they are called upon to attempt one. That's part of fundamental baseball.

Personally, I am not a fan of sacrifice bunts, but if our manager calls for one, our hitters should know the right technique.

That was a heck of a catch.

Wonderful Willie Mays in RF (Nice catch) :slytf:

Cruz's silent bat is going to begin hurting us, he needs to break out.

This is pathetic. How come we simply cant hit pitchers with over 4 eras

This O is a flat out joke. It's like I'm watching a slow pitch softball offense.

Good grief, another game where the bats go bye bye.

Their pitcher has a perfect game so far.

There, I've jinxed him.
