5/17 - Pirates (Duke) @ Cubs (Zambrano) 12:05PM CSN & 720

[Fred Hornkohl]

Fukudome bunted into a fielders' choice, 1-6, Ramirez out at second

[Keener98]

God I hate the sac bunt. Let him try bunting for a hit it usually works better.

[Outshined_One]

*Holds prosthetic arm*

 

And that's why you don't bunt with your #5 hitter.

[UMFan83]

Why the hell is Fukudome bunting in the first place. We're paying him $12 million to freaking give up outs and bunt?

[CubsGM]

If I am Lou I am sending Fuku here

[cubs121]

isnt that the worst bunt for fukudome this year?

[Careless]

I did a quick calculation I might have messed up and have soriano at 1.926 ops in the last 7 games.

[BigSlick]

Reason #2134 why bunting is dumb

[VanceJergins]

He just did a sac bunt? WHY?! He could have at least tried to bunt for a hit.

[Schwarber Fan]

Bunting with your #5 hitter. Smart, Lou. Real smart.

 

To be fair, Kosuke shouldn't be batting 5th

 

To be more fair, that's also Lou's fault

[Keener98]

isnt that the worst bunt for fukudome this year?

 

Its also the 1st sac bunt attempt. His others he has tried bunting for a hit

[BigSlick]

Lets have a Sotobomb, quick 9th and we all go home happy. (Except the Pirates)

I go back to Hendry for signing a right-handed LFer when he knew we were already committed to a righty at 1B.

 

But I guess I'm not complaining about that signing today.

[erik316wttn]

And if the sac bunt would have worked, they'd have probably walked Soto with 1st base open.

[CubsGM]

Damn :x

[Fred Hornkohl]

Soto flied out to deep center field

[BCVM22]

Just missed it.

[Careless]

Awww almost, Geo

[Keener98]

Got to try tagging on that. Fuku has enough speed to make it to 3rd if its over his head

[laurens]

Lets have a Sotobomb, quick 9th and we all go home happy. (Except the Pirates)

 

But they're used to that already, so no harm done.

[Schwarber Fan]

Damn, almost

[Careless]

Lee, you putz

edit: wth, me?

That inning sucked.

[E.J.]

Stop sliding headfirst into 1st base you idiot.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

DeRosa costs himself an infield single with a stupid slide. I hope he hurt himself.
