it would appear that Renteria is a bunt guy

 

It's a 0-0 game in the 9th.

 

and he's giving away outs

 

in return for a runner on second against a very good bullpen in a situation where 1 run probably wins the game.

Castillo is arguably the Cubs best hitter.

 

...one can say that about almost the entire lineup, though.

Sit down and shut up you big bald bunt.

He has a tough RHP on the mound against a slow RH DP candidate with 2 LH hitters on deck in a situation where 1 run is extremely valuable.

 

EDIT: And as was pointed out on the broadcast, he gave Castillo a swing to try and get a hit first.

This game needs some Kalish magic

 

Kalish magic sounds like something in Game of Thrones

 

That actually made me cringe

This sac bunting sure is working. 4 of them and 0 runs.

[ctcf]

Man this hurts

[Hairyducked Idiot]

We look equally awful with or without the favorable platoon matchup.

[MWV]

Wait, did we [expletive] bunt again?

What the [expletive], Renty?

[UMFan83]

I hate this team already

[Old Style]

Maybe we can score on Wednesday.

[Omar]

weak

[gscool89]

Keep on bunting Ricky

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Maybe we can score on Wednesday.

 

Maybe this game will still be 0-0 in the 183rd inning on Wednesday.

what sucks about this is that now if we lose it's guaranteed to be in disgusting annoying walk off fashion

[Sammy Sofa]

Not even the false hope of Rizzo's HR before they reminded us that they have all of the offensive power of a burn unit.

 

JUST ONE GAME.

Embrace the fun bad.

it stopped hurting a long time ago

What's the all time record for a team being shut out in a single season?
