I don't know if I've EVER seen the #8 guy be asked to sacrifice bunt. Maybe I just don't remember it, but it's obviously not sound strategy.

 

Well I'm glad you're the expert. With nobody out and guys on 1 and 2, putting guys on 2 and 3 with one out isn't a good idea? It doesn't matter WHO is up. Cappy is a pretty good hitter for a pitcher besides.

Not with your pitcher up. Nope. Now obviously you disagree with everyone just about everyone else on this topic (and many others) so I guess there's nothing more to say.

Capuano has a boke move.
"Dustin Pedroia doesn't have the strength or bat speed to hit major-league pitching consistently, and he has no power......He probably has a future as a backup infielder if he can stop rolling over to third base and shortstop." Keith Law, 2006

What you're not understanding is the high rate of failure in MLB. Just because Hardy is hot does not mean anything other than that he still has a 65% chance of FAILING. I'd rather have guys on 2 and 3 with one out when even if a guy fails we can still score a run. Insead we left guys on 1 and 2 with 1 out and a double play in tact with the pitcher up.
