vs. D'BACKS, 9/23

I'll take a balk.

Just don't get it. Take the pitch.

With a hitter who can bunt and a fast guy on 3d, why not bunt in that situation? I never see that. With a decent bunt you won't beat the runner at home, and it's tough to get the DP.

Only problem is the guy you have up has probably never bunted in his career.

I see no way we win this game.

Whatever happens to the Os at this point, they've earned it....

Bunting Bourn was dumb. No need to give away an out w 2 on. He's going to hit it to the right side of the field and he's going to beat out a DP.

Great swing, we definitely needed that grand slam.

Davis doesn't hit ground balls.

At least we've covered all the offense's problems the last 3 innings.

[mrbig1]

Why would Davis swing when the man has trouble finding the plate? Take a damn pitch.

Its all part of the script. Mancini is going to pinch hit for Alvarez and hit walk off in the bottom of the inning.

The momentum certainly changed after that inning. However, Arizona's bullpen is too bad for me to have any confidence they can avoid giving up a solo home run before they can score one themselves.

[orioleslist]

Why can't Davis do that when there is less than two outs instead of striking out. Perfect sac sly ball if it wasn't two outs.

Excellent observation.

This team doesn't deserve to win. The team MVP can't get a hit or sac fly with a fast man on third. Then Davis swings 2-0.

It made a heck of a lot more sense 1st and 2nd with 0 out than just Hardy on 1st and Kim up. I am still livid that Buck elected to bunt Bourn over letting Kim hit a RHP.

Nope. Buck logic. Alvarez hit a Homer earlier. The vet is staying in and the rookie is riding the pine.

[eddie83]

Not pinch hitting Mancini.

Another dumb move by Buck.

God he's awful tonight.

Bench a 161$M player for a rookie.
