Cohen HAS to bunt Henderson there!

[Bucky Dog]

We are not going to score 5 runs in one inning and it is still early.

 

[mcdawg22]

No he doesn't. Hell the runner still got to third and didn't score.

 

[Philly Dawg]

Down five you need rallies, not manufactured runs.

 

[operch]

Should have bunted and should have bunted strikes unlike yesterday's attempt.

 

[Philly Dawg]

You bunt there and you increase the chance to score one run but decrease the chance to score more than one run. One run per inning is not enough. Even the staunchest sabermatrician would not have advocated a bunt in that situation. If you don't think Henderson can get a hit, you pinch hit.
