Joc bailing out of the box early just 'might' have biased that third strike call Don't get cocky with blue Umps got all day to make you/your team suffer if they think you're a tool
I obviously don't know why he didn't call for the bunt, but one guess is maybe Grandal is so damn slow it has to be a great bunt to not be out at 2B or for it to be effective? Idk. Was weird but did almost work
or he didn't want wood to accidentally take a pitch pretty much anywhere on his body and break another glass pitcher?
Had to be it. Can't see any other scenario where you wouldn't bunt on Lester with a weak hitting pitcher up.
