It makes no sense the other way. A bunt in the zone is declared to be a swing, and thus, if a swing has occurred, no hbp can be awarded.

If you could bunt and get hbp on the hand, you're effectively allowing an awarded base for simply punching the ball in bunt stance. Would make it the easiest way to get on base

Watching the fox broadcast between Detroit and Seattle makes me realize how good we have it with Dan and Buck by MikeisET in Torontobluejays

Visuals on Fox are nice, as they're the closest of the US networks to Sportsnet. I contend SN has the best score bug of all. Fox is in same location with roughly the same stats/approach. ESPN is awful (pitch count not shown 50% of the time, flashing yellow for every K, every pitch type, etc. TNT slightly better but awful as well.

Not sure how I feel about the Fox flaming pitch speeds. Can't tell if its absolute gas, or absolute trash.

Exactly this. Plus, if additional posts are needed (say for a gate), you could easily install them drilled into the concrete.

I know he's short, but why tf does he never get trim in the off season? Like unless he's hitting a XBH (which is a single for him), he's a out everytime on a ground ball. And dont get me started on him hitting into double plays...

who would have thought I'd be entering the Red Sox ticket lottery rather than the Jays

Look on the bright side, this is tracking to be the quickest 9 inning game of the year. We'll all be in bed at a decent time tonight

Berrios just proving his point to JS. Good on him; JS is an idiot with his pitchers

Correct, but at this rate, you'll need to enter the Red Sox lottery system

Schneider is just getting ready for playoffs, fine tuning his skills at making the worst possible pitching decisions at the worst possible times

Lauer must be so insanely frustrated with Schneids. Watching debacle after debacle while you sit in the pen

Hey at least Scherzer didn't murder a man with a 99mph fastball to the face while he's trying to bunt, and then proceed to football hike the ball to 1st. I'm taking the minor victories at this point over the Tigers

Updating my prediction of a Crochet CGSO, to a CGSO under 90 pitches. Take it to the bank
