Why not bunt with Frost? Then let Frazier have a chance to win it?

Pitching staff gives up 2 runs or less through 9 innings for the 3rd consecutive game, yet we go to extra innings for the 2nd time in those 3 games.

let the lefty's swing and have a chance to win it- we stole the base and had a chance. But when your hitter is only successful 3 out of 10 times- those odds arent good

Frost has a WAY better chance of moving Britton into scoring position there, then he does of hitting off steckenrider. He should have been bunting, and Cohen knew he screwed up when Frost struck out. That's why we had to steal, and we're fortunate he made it. Didn't end up mattering, but had Frazier singled on that first pitch, it would have been a disaster that we didn't bunt Frost.

That was a classic spot or Cohen to do what he supposedly does best, manufacture runs.

Hell, I'm not a huge proponent of bunting anyway except in late game situations.
