June 22, 20179 yr Author No clue if Verlander was bothered by it but Dyson caught a lot of guff from fans. Seeing that it started a rally I find that interesting. 9-0 late then I'd have an issue.
June 22, 20179 yr Probably but I loved it. I wish everyone in baseball admired their work like that. Amen...if a team doesn't like it all they have to do is get Puig out the next time. If they get him out, light him up on the way back to the dugout...let him hear about it. As long as no one is being injured, I'm against all unwritten rules in Baseball.
June 23, 20179 yr No clue if Verlander was bothered by it but Dyson caught a lot of guff from fans. Seeing that it started a rally I find that interesting. 9-0 late then I'd have an issue. And it started a rally that chased Verlander out of the game.
June 23, 20179 yr I'd drop a drag bunt down 21-0 in the bottom of the 9th inning with 2 outs and a perfect game on the line. Don't let me be safe at first either. I'd laugh sooooo hard. :lol2: :lol2: :lol2: I'd flip the bat...
June 23, 20179 yr ALL unwritten rules are stupid. I do not care what the situation is, a batter's job is to get on base. 20-0 bottom of the 9th, 2 outs and a perfect game on he line, everything is fair game. Baseball players/ fans can be some of the biggest cry babies in pro sports.
June 23, 20179 yr Not bothered by it in the least. I would be bothered if he did anything less than what gave him his best chance of reaching base. You think Pete Rose would be bothered by the bunt? Hell no.
June 23, 20179 yr Today, I actually went and read the whole thread on here about that particular incident. Now there was a discussion. Which thread is that? I would like to read myself.
June 23, 20179 yr Which thread is that? I would like to read myself. Enter at your peril! It's a long and winding thread. http://bluegrasspreps.com/major-league-baseball/braves-are-tired-261912.html

June 24, 20179 yr No clue if Verlander was bothered by it but Dyson caught a lot of guff from fans. Seeing that it started a rally I find that interesting. 9-0 late then I'd have an issue. Why? A guy leads off a game with a bunt hit, and everyone else gets out the rest of the game and they lose 9 to 0. Are people made that he bunted to lead off the game for the only hit? I hate unwritten rules of baseball like that. If you have to field a bunt in the first inning to get an out to preserve a no hitter, you should have to do that too in a 9th inning if someone bunts.
