Yeah, but first both Fontenot and Johnson bat, so Theriot would probably never get the chance.

 

 

Right, because Fontenot has been such an offensive black hole lately....

[CubsGM]

Bunt?

[Andy]

Now I'll definitely take a bunt.

With Reed and Theriot, that's asking to have this turned into a scoreless inning...

[CubsNSkers07]

Best hitter with RISP on deck even if Reed sucks against righties I'll take my chances bunt them over.

Why not go ahead and pinch run for Marshall?

[illiniguy]

If we don't win this, I kill myself.

 

Do you really want that on your back, Cubs.

I doubt that would be the first one on the franchise's back.

Lilly in the BP? That's...wow.

[UMFan83]

Oh no Ted Lilly in the pen...

I'm pretty sure the Reed has the best average with RISP, if I saw one of Fred's stats correctly.

[CubsGM]

UGH

[PrimeTime]

Argghhh Damnit!!

[Drew Doughty]

Why not go ahead and pinch run for Marshall?

 

probably because it's hard to justify wasting both a bench player and a pitcher in extras.

[Outshined_One]

That didn't work.

[Guest]

No PDA Quade/Fontenot.

 

Quade is putting the moves on Fontenot.

 

You guys have to go into details for those of us with no CSN.

[TMan92]

Figures.

[UMFan83]

BUNTING IN THIS SITUATION WAS DUMBBBBBB

[CubinNY]

I hate the bunt. Hate it!

[Andy]

You're kidding me, slow runner gets thrown out at 3rd on a bunt. Unreal.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Fontenot bunted into a FC, 5-6, Marshall out at third, DeRosa to second

Way to snip the post. I was responding to how he said to get a runner into position for Theriot, despite the fact that there would be 2 batters still to come. I didn't say they would be automatic outs, but that the runner would probably score before Theriot got the chance.

And...thats why you would.

Don't want him up vs. Righties ever though
