Do Not Sell My Personal Information
I'd...rather have Yu Chang bunting than Sandy Leone.

Or hell, just let Chang swing away.
Don't disagree but I'm sure they would have preferred Perez have the entire day off. I would assume that was the line of thinking.

And I don't care what anybody says, major league hitters damn sure should know how to execute a bunt so Leon should have been able to do the job.

Tribe have been notoriously bad at bunting over the years and catchers are generally pretty terrible at it. But I hear you.
 
The assumption that a successful bunt is automatic is so antiquated and just not based in reality.
And that is a cop out to let players off the hook for not being able to execute one of the most fundamental parts of the game. I understand what you are saying because the bunt is not a part of the game any more but that doesn't make it right. And, as you have seen, it may cost us.
 
Naquin with the double to give us the lead - Delino bunts Naquin to third - Here's Berto? - and after the three hits last night Berto does Berto
